You better hope you stay healthy and are never admitted to a hospital for anything. Your cash will be saying Bye-Bye to you. As well as all your future cash if you are able to earn any. You may find yourself living very simply because you won't own anything of value after you lose your bet on staying healthy forever. I assume you have no dependents, or are you gambling on their continued good health too?
