Are you dense? They're dying. The average life expectancy is in the seventies. That's how old they are. They are dead or dying right now. They're not going to make to the point in the future at which the average life expectancy is above 90, because they're already at the end of their lives right now.
Sorry, I didn't mean to upset you with my post. Thank you for schooling me.

why the hostility? In Canada anyway average life expectancy is in the 80s, and most people in my family make it to their 90s (two have made it past 100)
mostly they stay sharp until mid to late 80s and then there is a sharp decline

I bet it makes the mind mentally sharper. Your friends must not stand a chance when playing bingo against you.
I never tried bingo. the again, I am interested in other stuff like art, javascript, rollerblading LSD, etc. actually my friends - ranging from 30 to past 75 are all pretty interesting and none have been near a bingo thing, or hall or whatever.

My first (completely over-the-top) LSD experience was age 17. The aftermath of that is set down in the interview I did with LearyFan back in 2013. Up till then I'd smoked pot, and had mushrooms a time or two.
Whether the trend in your enjoyment of the psychedelic headspace continues is uncertain. There will come times and phases in your life in which responsibilities will alter your attitude and your opportunity...but whose to say. Not to mention, there may be a sentinal "psychedelic event" in your future that changes EVERYTHING in an unanticipated way.

I was 17 - 1969 yorkville avenue - purple microdot nice and strange. "knights in white satin" was stereophonically pervasive.
