Money. Living forever is overrated.

That isn't true, you can live a very full life as someone with 'just enough' money ... you have a home, you have food on your plate, you can have friends and family, you just have no money ... like if you did have kids (they would be mortal) you could only feed/clothe them ... you could never buy gifts ...

What happens if you lose an arm? Can you be killed? Decapitated etc.

Or is it a ground hog day scenario?
Lets make immortality be a bit more attractive ... not only do you live forever, but you cannot be harmed ... well lets say you grow back/mend if you do hurt yourself ... you also PHYSICALLY stay your current age forever ... (no point being 10,000 years old and have aged at human rates!! )

Endless money. Theres too much crap going on in this world for me to want to live in it for longer than I really have to. Give me money, let me buy a nice house, a load of land, several bikes and set up some laboratories for scientific study, and some really nice guitars. I can then spend my life doing what I love and leave something behind for others to either apreciate, or destroy...whatever humankind's desire should so be.

Well living for ever sounds good, but I would out live all my friends and family whcih wouldn't be good So you would start over again every few generations so where would that leave you? Also by the way things are going would yoy sent to see the end?

If I had a supply of money that didn't run they I would be able to enjoy life and not be stressed through the work and trying to find enough to live and to do what I want.

Taking the money and having a fun life good life sounds good to me. Though not being able to be hurt, sounds good as well? Can I have money, live a normal life span but not be hurt?
