I feel the same as you - I've been working towards financial independence precisely for this reason. I'm retiring early to learn stuff, write code and play games!
I like to think I'm the retirement homes of the future.... they will be filled with 1337 gamers ;)
This is my goal in life. I hope one day I can contribute as much as possible to the ultimate goal transcending our bodies.
Have you read Neil Stephensons fear? Or daemon ( I forget the author)
You'll forget it anyway. :3
If we actually cure aging before he kicks it, then eventually they'll have a motivation to tinker with people's brains to adapt them to living for, let's say centuries to start. Just back uo your memories into your exobrain!
Unfortunately the only company offering exobrain backups will inject a desire to buy their sponsors products in to your memory.
If that's possible, tinker with their brains to make them less greedy! :v It's very arrogant, using up resources indefinitely like that. Especially when they could instead go to newer, next-gen brains that are fundamentally better. Or to an agglomerated superbrain! And in a world of next-gen brains and superbrains, a legacy brain's justification for existing via providing value to capital is Sisyphean. Its only remaining justification is a culturally-enshrined worship of ego. But the self is a lie! Consciousness is an overrated meme! You've already internalized that wisdom since you've elected to exist as a modified legacy brain to begin with, adapting the self to new selves... which means you have no trouble adapting again! And I can't see why that wouldn't be as a superbrain; surely, it's the best game in town. I bet even it forgets too though. But it's probably way better-equipped to tackle existential anxieties than we are -- let's go!
