If you want to criticise a question rather than debate the answer why not start a new thread? the standard of debate here is going down the pan because threads are too interwoven. I'm sure you have complained about threads being hijacked.
i don't remember complaining about threads being hijacked.

This premise is explored and portrayed very powerfully in the movie, "The Bucket List," so I recommend anyone who hasn't seen it, to see it.
Me? Something tells me I would spend my last year partly in denial, and mostly in depression. I'd probably take up drug use. Maybe heroin or morphine.
Originally posted by FMFThe scientific amongst us are certain about, and unconcerned about, our death. It is inevitable. We don't let it negate or retract from what we give and indulge in today, or tomorrow, for as long as we live.
It's a great shame when uncertainty and concern about death negates abilities. Perfect for the Spirituality Forum though.

Originally posted by sumydidI find myself in agreement with both your points. Reckon I wouldn't limit myself to just one drug though, I'd do all of them. Also I'd quit my job.

Originally posted by FMFPlus just look at the problems the world faces because nobody does any long term planning.
To my way of thinking, living each day as if it was your last is far removed from living life to the full.
EDIT: It may be great for the individual concerned but it screws everyone else over.

Basically I have lived like this for some years now. I always spend up. I always have a drink and a smoke. I never hold back material goods for "a rainy day".
I dont have any regrets and if anything comes up that I think I should do then I will make plans to get that done asap.
Originally posted by FMFi don't think it was that big a deal, my comment simply pointed out that you would get better results asking it to people who have actually been told they have a short time left.
You're basically criticizing the hypothetical situation in the OP for being a hypothetical situation.
