  • Yessssss yessssssss!

  • @mrboobbarker Only time will tell

    ;)

  • @curingaging00 your reposne is logical, i only wonder how many of us will be left, outside of the rich elites, when the technology finally filters its way down to the average citizen.

  • @mrboobbarker Like everything these therapies will start out very expensive, affordable for only the wealthy at first, but like everything, as technology progresses, their prices will come down.

    Decades ago computers are only affordable for the wealthy, but look at us now... I have a computer that is hundreds of times as powerful and for a much lower cost ;)

    Eventually life extension therapies will be WIDELY affordable. Just like the way cars, computers, modern medicine is.

  • @mrboobbarker That comment that you have responded to was a simple rebuttal to someone who doesn't want this reseach to even take place. I think that this research should continue.

  • @curingaging00 fantasy, the bottom line is money, no money no extension Everyone has the right to be healthy but rights are meaningless as it will come down to money. rich people have no desire to extend the lives of the poor

  • Sad thing is, in this society, Aubrey, gets acouple thousand views meanwhile lady gaga gets acouple million views. Now translate that to financial support and priorities of people: Not Good!

    Doesn't take a rocket scientist to see, you cannot build these great ideas around shaky foundations, you need to destroy the shaky foundations and rebuild good, sturdy foundations to grow these great ideas into reality.

    Anything else is just fooling yourself.

  • sondano's right. Depends on how much money you have, that's the second cut.
