I just remembered this great sci-fi book which has a good take on these issues:

https://www.amazon.com/Buying-Time-Joe-Haldeman/dp/038070439...

"Buying Time" is great! Enjoyable take on longevity through technology. I have multiple copies, at least one of which is signed by Haldeman.

There was a followup comic book series, which was decent.

There are so many great Haldeman books, particularly the ones where he sets out to kill a Heinlein book as did "The Forever War" (Starship Troopers) and "Worlds" (The Moon is a Harsh Mistress.)

That book popped into my mind; it took two tries to find it with Copilot and I was pleasantly reminded of who the author was.

Thanks for those book recommendations. I'm always interested in discussion or reactions to Heinlein.

Interesting statement, I'm grabbing those books now.
