Lifespan and sacrifice

[segfault]

I've always thought to myself that I would give my grandparents and even my mum and dad ten or so years each off my lifespan each so they should be here for 10+ years definite each if such a deal were possible. I'd rather go when they go, so to speak.

Example - You are assured to live until you are 90. Instead, you give your 4 grandparents 10 years each from your lifespan which means you'd die at 50 whilst they would live assured for another 10 years.

So more broader, would you sacrifice years from your life (or even your life) for a loved one?

Hypothetically, say you have a wife & kids one day - Don't you think it would kinda screw them over (in addition to yourself) if you were to pop your clogs at 50? An extra 10 years after 90 isn't all that much really (especially not if your old and decrepit by then anyway), but you going at 50 takes 40 years (nearly half your life) away from your kids, which is a far bigger chunk.

Assuming everyone has 90 years it just wouldn't really make sense for anyone to be swapping lifespan so far as i can see it.

Without that assumption though, for my partner & any potential future kids, I probably would.

I'd give them negative years, more for me.

I wouldn't no.
While I don't want to get old, I don't think I could put my family through the chance of having me die before them.
I don't know when I'm going to die, so to take ten years off I could die tomorrow.
