If you can make it 10-12 more years, then you are very likely to make it past 100 if you have some money. I have no doubt rich people will live much longer. Young people who live 50 more years may see 150!

I have seen articles about studies that suggest 150 years. There are studies that I have read about which state that the human body is engineered to max-out at 120 years.
My mom lived to 92. My dad lived to 97. My dad would have gone longer except for falling, cracking his hip, and being bed ridden. Pneumonia got him when he was confined to being horizontal and moving very little.

My father burned a quote into my brain in his later years,

"Son, you see these people on TV that live to be 116 and so forth. Never lose sight of the fact that NONE of them are fat."

It's anecdotal, but I haven't seen an exception to that yet.
