Would you want to know your exact date and time of death ? Say there was some sort of a blood test you could take to find it out, would you do it ? Would you insist on a potential partner taking the test, Test your children, Parents employee's etc ? If Insurance company's offered vastly reduced premiums based upon the results would you provide them ?

Just wondering.
 
Nope, nope, nope nope.

Insurance is a gamble = if you already know the outcome of the bet then you can't gamble on it.
 
What no going for a large bank loan say six months before X time to live it up in the last few months or anything like that ? Taking every extreme risk in the knowledge your time wasn't going to be up before X ?

I'd imagine question 7 on the bank application paperwork would be:

Have you taken a Death Clock checkup?

;)

Only under the difference in interest charged as with that of insurance.

Me = Yes.
Partner = No.
Kids = Yes (can leave them at the orphanage if they'll be carking it too early :P )
Insurance = WTF? Couldn't exist like the other guys said.
Mind bending to think about the implications of such predestination, however.

lol I only get until 2039, just took a guess at my weight. 26 years to go - mmmmmm - that's 9490 bottles of red wine at say $15 a pop taking inflation into account, over $142000 in alcohol pissed up against a tree!!!! Omy fucking gawd. :/

I started that calculation as a bit of a joke for myself.........now I'm not laughing. :o
