No one knows for sure how they will be in their old age. My grandmother didn’t seem to struggle until her mid to late 90s. That’s a lot of years to leave on the table. Years that allowed her to meet and enjoy time with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
Had she died at 65, I wouldn’t have even known her. Instead she was around for my entire childhood and well into adulthood.
I'd rather live through my 80s without much struggling. Longevity and quality of life until the end. And I try to live in the way that lends itself towards that.

Easy to say when you're not 65-70.
