    I think most people would want to know so they know what date they have got until to do all they want to do in life.

    I would like to die the same way as my dad. Peacefully in my sleep. Which was fine for him but given he was a bus driver the 50 passengers on board that day did not approve.

    Absolutely not. I think knowing would be terrible for your mental health.

    No thanks - at the minute I can convince myself I have still many years to live -what if I find out its later this year Id rather be in ignorance thanks

    Especially as just last week I went to the funeral of a friend of mine - he was only 60 - found out at Christmas he had inoperable cancer so its possible I have only a few months to live but dont know it yet - would like very much to keep it that way

    Nah I'd rather not know. It's like people who see clairvoyants/mediums etc... even if real I wouldn't want to know. To believe your life is already mapped out is pretty grim.

    Would you rather know when you’re going to die or how?

    Yes, definitely, then I could calculate to the day the exact time I could afford to give up working.

    I want to die in bed with a beautiful woman. Hopefully from an heart attack and not her husbands shotgun!

    It'd mangle your brain wondering whether your date of death would have been different if you'd chosen not to know

    Possibly, but if the date was, say, 50 years away you could make some good plans, especially if you were 50 when you heard it. That would be good for my mental health I think

    Not if some Final Destination type logic applied and death caught up with you regardless!
