Hope our descendants enjoy paying for life long drugs to prevent a number of diseases (fingers crossed anyway)

If you’ve ever had someone close to you develop alzheimers, especially family where it was then more likely that you would develop it, you would have no problem paying for drugs to prevent it for life. It’s probably the cruelest thing that can happen to a person in life.

Two of my grandparents had it, I’ll probably get it if I last that long

And would you take a tablet a day to prevent it? As someone in roughly the same situation as you, I’d do it in a heartbeat.

Maybe, if the side-effects are close to nonexistent and I can afford it.
