How do you deal with the thought of having to work for 40+ years and then when/if you retire, you're too old to do much?

It already is illegal, and euthanasia while "tolerated" is also illegal to perform by a medical professional.

What are they going to do, arrest a corpse? Fine by me.

I'm not suicidal, but I have considered how nice it would be to diary in a date where I think "yep, i've had a titsful of life now, time to fuck off to sto'vo'kor" or whatever.

The only thing that stops me taking it seriously is the prospect that it may be subjecting others to criminal investigation or court process.
