That's what you say now ( presumably at 22 or so.) It's because you feel so superior to those older people.
But a lot of what you value as cool and progressive, and specially revealed to your generation and not others, will just seem jejune, shallow and obvious later.
If you don't smoke cigs or drink a huge amount or get fat you should feel great until you're past 40 and into early 50s.
Very few healthy 40 year olds want to die.
The unfortunate thing from your point of view is you can't be YoungTallCool when you're not Young anymore. If you're a famous actor or DJ you can be cool for longer though. Good luck with that...
My father turns 77 this year. Looks in his 50's and has a hot women. He goes out dancing 3 times a week and doesn't want to check out anytime soon.
