Radical Life Extension

The universal basic income (UBI) appeals to many people. It appears to be a simple and relatively easy way to guarantee a minimum income to everyone. The proposal can mean simply giving everyone a fixed amount of money on a regular basis or the “negative income tax” favored by Nobel economist Milton Friedman. It appeals to some transhumanists who look ahead to a hoped-for day when AI-driven corporations produce tremendous value with little to no human input. Whether or not UBI is workable today, some believe it will be in this future.

The UBI as typically promoted is unworkable (especially today) and undesirable. An alternative offers an approach that we can start implementing immediately and that can evolve to fit the future of AI production. Rather than forcibly taking and distributing it instead encourages stock ownership by all by educating people about the long-term benefits (and risks) of investing. It could take the form of a required and protected amount of savings (something like a 401k). If shares in AI-driven corporations are to be simply given to everyone, it should be done once and not repeatedly to greatly reduce disincentives to be productive.
The application of evidence-based science and ethical use of technology for extending human life well beyond the maximum human life span is known as Radical Life Extension.

Meaning Of Life

Have fun, enjoy living (playing video games in my opinion) or..................
Go to school then get a job to get money to survive to go to your job until you get old and retired and die.

GGGent Life

God-Goals-Greatness
A life style for more traditional believe system. Husband and wife family structure with a foundation of life dedicated to serving Jesus Christ. With this there are most certainly going to be suck time. GGGent Life embracing the suck almost seeking it out and embracing the obstacles that come with serving Jesus Christ. A life where our wants are overruled by our goals. Finding what excites you, praying that this is the path God wants you to travel. Being willing to fight for the life style you vision for yourself. Having small friend circles who build you up. Friend circles where it is ok to show love by making fun of them to their face and standing up for them when they are not around. GGGent Life chasing greatness the feeling of accomplishment. Share the good news. Be loud about loving Jesus Christ. Express love and kindness and at the same time do not take my kindness for weakness. It's a life style it gets long, slow down and enjoy the moments
I just accomplish this, over came this, got passed this... GGGent Life

I failed, I am not as good as I thought, I learned from it, I will do better, I am not giving up! I am going to try again and again until I get it right. GGGent Life
