Only 10/15% ?
On what level of net income ?
- __d 7y agoYes. From about $100k to maybe $300k. After that I might be able to afford more. There's no doubt it could be an attractive product (assuming a bunch of stuff about how it works) but as a practical matter, living longer doesn't make me any wealthier, so it'd have to come out of my discretionary spending. While I might not have to save for my retirement due to age, I'd probably prefer not to have to work 50+ hours a week forever, so I'll probably need to save and invest such that I can get a sufficient income to enable me to follow my interests -- some will involve being paid, others might not. Once I've acquired a house, or perhaps a couple, and have investments providing a post-inflationary, capital-preserving return that I can live off, then I'd likely look to move beyond a basic salaried employment into something more flexible. But if I still need to pay for my "live forever" pills, there's a limit to what I'd be prepared to fork over on an ongoing basis.
