I heard old people are actually more open to new experience and more tolerant.


How many people over 100 years old helped spark the agricultural revolution, the industrial revolution, the computer revolution. If we cure aging, 90% of customers will be this group, voting, writing legislation, these people don't need no stinkin inter tube or whatever you call it. Im not talking about 50 to 80 old. Im talking about the entire world consisting of people who have the mental age of over 100, with no ability or desire to replace the slide rule with a calculator, or a calculator with a computer program. If we cure aging, hopefully we can motivate the elderly to start startups on tech that came out 5 years ago.


May I ask how old you are?
