Would you want to know the time and date you would die ?

You could plan ahead and put things in place to insure your loved ones and financial affairs would be sorted.

[MTVN]

Yeah I probably would

Although not really sure how it'd work, like if you find out you'll die at 100 does that suddenly give you free rein to eat a load of crap and smoke twenty a day

Probably

[smudgie]

It does help.
Obviously we don’t know the exact date but it’s good to be able to talk about it and plan your farewell party.
Makes life easier for the people you love if you can talk about it all and they realise that it’s just the cycle of life.

You can do that without knowing the date

Not if the date is a lot sooner than any one expected

Depends, sometimes people still have life insurance & will's already in place...even when they're still fit & fairly healthy...for that very reason,as anything could happen.

But I think most people don't want to dwell on it.

I have a feeling you are not

I could die tomorrow and still have everything sorted

Well no not really. I should imagine the majority of members on here have their affairs in order no? I mean most of them are close to it

Do you mind putting a poll up to see how many members have a will ?
I think it’s going to be less than half

Well joey has…

[Strictly Jake]

Only if it was coming in the next year or so. If it's far along in the future, I hope, I wouldn't want to know

[AnnieK]

Nope, wouldn't want to know. I would love a guarantee that my son would be old enough to cope on his own and be living his own life but beyond that I don't want to me counting down to anything, I would rather live every day to the fullest without dreading what is to come.

[Beso]

Yeah..I think I would like to know..by a watch that's on a countdown.

Well they used to sell life countdown clocks, not sure i they still around if you fancy watching your life count down.

[hijaxers]

I wrote a will so long ago that both my executors are dead

[Beso]

Imagine though, a family with the kids on a shorter timer than the parents...that would be awful, if the kid was born and their watch said 3 years or something..parents 2ould be suffering the heartache before they should.

Heartbreaking but they would make sure the short years they have are amazing. Better that’ than an unexpected death

[joeysteele]

Not really.
I've got a will made.
I've made clear after the funerals of my Parents what my thinking is and across all the relationships of my life whether it's family, friends or just general acquaintances.
As much as I'd want to say or want to say I have done and will continue to do daily whether my life is shorter or longer.

So knowing the even approximate date of my passing wouldn't matter really.
Other than maybe expressing some thank you's to those who've been rocks to me in difficult times.
I would likely if I was told, just keep the date to myself anyhow.

[Nicky91]

no i don't want to know


this is quite a dark thread, Sheriff
