You could always cancel all of them.

That may not be true. With today’s medicine, you could become a blithering idiot who wears a diaper, a catheter, and has to be spoon fed mush. You won’t have any credit cards. Someone else will be handling your affairs. You have to take the bitter with the sweet; increased longevity with a potential for a prolonged decline.

But you can transfer your balance to a new low rate card and push your expiration date back even further.

I used to have an uncle who felt that way about dogs. His dog died, I asked if he was going to get another one, he said he didn’t want the dog to outlive him. He lived on another 30 years. I didn’t get it then, but the older I get the more sense it makes to me.

Live fast. Die young. Leave an excellent credit score.

I’m not certain credit cards are going to be around for all that much longer.

Funny, I’ve had that same thought when screwing in LED light bulbs. With a 30 year lifespan it’s probably 50/50 that I’ll ever have to change them again!

But those LEDs will make you look orange.

And at some point, The POTUS Will be younger than you.
