on the other hand i think it would make others much more conservative if we had an "expiration date" printed on us, if you see your going to die at 85 you might save a little bit more then if you where to die at 35 i think it would definitely erase the YOLO mentality that a lot of people have today, physically being assured hey your going to live for another 45 years would most likely make a 15 year old think twice about their actions (especially financially). However, i can easily imagine someone saying "i have 50 years to live im gonna be a daredevil"l and then promptly break every bone in their body.
