Thoughts?

I don't feel very sad. I see opportunity.

How I would spend immortality? Reading, watching, advancing.

How I would spend immortality? Traveling the world. Spending 100 years in each country or something like that

 

[Evil Eye]

And let's not forget to make some long-term investments!

Buy stocks! Hold on to them for 200 years.

 

[Evil Eye]

Bury some coins! They'll be ancient in no time!

Buy stocks! Hold on to them for 200 years.

Yeah, most would be worthless then.

Being immortal in a mortal world, I think I'd have to live rather secluded and change place often so as to not attract attention to not aging. It would mean learning to survive in nature when it is required and not be dependent on the modern way of life. Dodging the society's tracking could be surprisingly easy when you're faced with it, or at least you'd learn how in a couple hundred years. Dropping off the radar as if you didn't exist. It might be handy also to learn how to change your looks in a way that you wouldn't be recognized as the same person very easily.

Either the above, or then make your way into riches and being on the top of the top. Might as well be the second best hiding place. But I'm not sure I wanna be a part of that governing world.

Learning all kinds of things with all that time would be the content of my life, while seeing the whole planet through and through.
