Funny, I used to hope that I would make it until my 30's. I used to do a lot of extreme sports

At this moment I don't really know... And I don't think about it actually. I just live my life and try to make it as best as I can.

It can be tomorrow, but it can also be in 80 years. I don't really care...

My answer has changed over the last couple of years as i've just had my first child in 2010. I don't have an age number in mind but i would love to still be around (and hopefully in good health) to be there for my son's children. But it would be fantastic at the very least to be there for my son into adulthood and wath him grow up.

Being old doesn't mean you have to be ill. There are a lot of people that are around 80-90 years old and are still very healthy. It all depends on your lifestyle I think...

I'm not so sure about his work but I'm definitely interested in his beard.

His stuff is fascinating. Really interested to see if he achieves his goals within my lifetime.

As for me, just so long as I keep living every day well, hustling hard and doing good for the world I'm not too bothered. I don't want to have to put my parents through the horror of burying me though. I was recently at a friend's funeral, he was 19 when he died and his family were devastated. I wouldn't want that for them.
