Perhaps we could meet half-way Dujon. While I empathise with wanting to see the grandkids grow up, I see too many people being struck down with disease in late middle-age, or living to 90 but with a dysfunctional body or mind. I see a window of opportunity in the 60's or early 70's to get out and do stuff before quality of life declines: hot air ballooning over the Namib desert, astronomy on the Tibetan plateau, boating around the Mediterranean following the footsteps of the Phoenicians; pick something that's not too dangerous and take the kids along.
