All my grandparents have passed now.

So I'd say my aunt she's 81, how about you guys?
 
My uncle has to be nearing 90. Dude straight up has some Forrest Gump level stories about him (Vietnam Track, Football, being a high level cook/ fisherman and so on)... except the part of being stupid, he went to a major college and still can put a beatdown on people playing Trivial Pursuit Genius Edition...
 
I work with a 75 year old, he doesn't have a pension.... I know older than him.
 
My grandmother is 97. She still does water aerobics 2x a week and golfs once a week. She has her faculties and lives by herself (although my cousins live literally next door to her). We just had to take her car keys this past year even though technically her Drivers license is valid until she’s 101 lol, it just wasn’t safe any longer.
 
My FIL and my next door neighbor Dave are both 90+ and both still drive and largely maintain their own rural properties with little assistance. Pops was even on his Morton building patching the roof earlier in the Week.

I know a couple people who are even older by a couple years, but they are not self sufficient anymore.

....isn't it Genus edition not Genius?
 
97, but she just ended up in the hospital with a broken leg. Not good.
 
Back in the early 2000s my family had this friend called Charlie. He was very tall(probably above 7 feet). He was in his late 90s and possibly reached 100. I do remember he died somewhere in that 2003/2005 range. I was younger than 10 I don't really remember the specifics.
 
My father in law who is currently 94 years old.
 
All my friends are at least 70. I’m 31. Idk how this keeps happening lol.
 
Grandfather died last week at 92... His mother was 98 and his wife's mother 103 when they died...
