How will life be different? How will you plan to live your life?

If I could never die of old age I would kill myself when life was no longer worth living.

I'm not interested in being immortal.

I wouldn't plan at all :D lol that means even more time to procrastinate and get round to trying things in my own time.

If I was immortal, I'd first work at building enough secure wealth to maintain myself perpetually. This would be pretty damn easy once over a critical point, which is only a matter of time.

After that I think I would travel a lot. At first casually, tourist style, but then increasingly motivated to go everywhere and do everything. It would be a never-ending task. Humanity produces far too much stuff for a single person to keep up on it all. Heck, people alone. More people are born than one person can ever get to know.

I think it far more likely that disease, violence, or some other factor outside my control would ultimately end me before I felt a desire to end myself. Even if I reached that point, I would rather go the route of increasingly tempting fate to kill me rather directly offing myself.

I'd drop all sense of caution. Crazy NeFe styled shenanigans n' stuff.

I'd live as a turist/adventurer 24/7 while waiting for the era of space colonization and lightsabers.

Well..let's say that what I plan on doing today for my future may be the exact opposite of what I am inspired to do tomorrow for my future..my life is a book being written as I inch along, and possibilities are completely endless. I wouldn't like to live forever, though..I'd get too bored with this world. I don't think I'd want to live much past 85.

I'd hate to be 800+ years old and look like Yoda.

But given that I don't age with time.. I'd get bored real quick.. but it could be fun trying to be the best athlete in all sports and spend a decade getting good.

Traveling would get old and repetitive.

And it'd be cool to see how the world changes over a course of 500 years while getting to see it all...

There are so many factors that deal with aging. Cells themselves have a lifespan (They can only multiply a certain amount of times) is probably the easiest to take care of. At least, if you do it right and don't give the person cancer in the process. Though I guess it could happen in 50 years, considering how fast tech is moving nowadays.

I have no idea what I'd do if I lived forever. I wouldn't like it, I bet. I would be so detached from humanity that I would probably kill myself after a while.

Dying is a part of humanity. It helps to make up our personalities. We change whether we die or not in many ways we change everything.
