Hypothetical.
A solution is found for telomere replication errors, effectively doubling your lifespan. you'll now live to about 160, all aging effects halved, as we know them now.

How would you change your approach to how you live your life, what would you start doing/ doing differently once the treatment was given and took hold.

Huh. Really? Um.

Work harder - LOTS harder - on living happily. :) ('course, affording it seems to be the more difficult portion. *shrug* )

I'd work longer in IT, save up more money, so I can invest more.

Take better care of my teeth.

And on those days when I feel the finitude of life weighing down on me, I would relax a lot more. (Future generations, who grew up with the technology, would not have this benefit. But getting sixty years more than I expected? Yeah, that would make me feel better, less rushed.)

I'd plan on going back to school again when I was 100, instead of planning on forgetting everything I've learned long before then. If I don't die early from a tragic accident involving household products and untamed wildlife.

I'd seriously consider spawning, soon. MANY TIMES. And if reproductive cycles capped out around fourty like before, I'd look into adoption policies and try to get a job in the adoption agency industry
