Would you like to live forever (gene therapy )?

Would you like to live forever ?

With gene therapy and other genetic research going on out there
I'm sure scientists will know how to turn off the "aging gene or genes" sooner or later. Maybe in our lifetime. Will people actually want to live forever ? and at what cost ? I'm sure there are benefits and unforseen side effects on the human body and in civilization in general. Does anyone else have thoughts on this issue ?

Answer:
Right now, I know I want to live...I am finally happy!
I feel cheated that I didn't find out earlier what life could be like, and I do have to admit, I wish, we could not age at the speed we do just for that reason.
It will be difficult for anyone being happy with their life to analize that because 'living forever'...what does this even mean? No one knows...and naturally, for the civilization in general, of course, we'd end up having to have birth restrictions, for space/resource reasons?
No thanks. My stash of money will last only about 18 years.
actually i don't, it would be kind of booring, and problems that keep getting worse and worse..that can't be solved untill death
If there was such a serum I would probably do anything short of murder to get my hands on it. It'd be wonderful to have an indefinite lifespan, to not have to live with the knowledge that within a century it's a certainty I won't be around anymore.
nope..for one thing I couldnt afford it..secondly..Ive done my time on this screwy planet and Im ready for the next go round somewhere else
i would wanna live long enough to see how technology is gonna end up. maybe a little longer than that. anyway, everyone would probably like to live a little longer, but i dont think anyone would wanna go forever
I use tide soap and my jeans still get holes in them.
no,just normal life
and no one will live forever and they can not do it .
I am not quite sure, however, I would like to have that choice.
no, I would pass on living forever.
