This. It's all based on conditional probabilities.

The key to immortality: just keep living. That's my plan. So far so good.

Fascinating to try and analyze. At 76 years old, column 2 shows only 40% died.

It's interesting to see that I am in the .9 difference a year range.

Who is more likely to live to 100, a newborn or a 99 year old? I think it helps
