Into the Future

I worry about what my quality of life will be like five years from now. And like with most things in this world that I worry about, my go-to response these days, 3/4ths joking but 1/4th serious is: "Maybe I'll pass away before then." 

I damn near blurted those words out once .... to a car dealership deal closer guy who wouldn't stop with every angle and approach that he could come up with as to why I needed to purchase an extended warranty. It went through my head at the time, while I was seated at his desk, to just say: "Why do I need an extended warranty when there's a good chance I won't outlive the standard warranty?" 

It seemed to be the only possible response that might shut him down.
