The oldest man in the world...

Can you actually believe it? The oldest people in the world are,not surprisingly the Japanese.According to this article-http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19291437/ ,the oldest man in the world would be Tomoji Tanabe age 111 and the oldest women would be Yone Minagawa age 114.Can you actually believe this,these people were born during the Togugawa era where there were still samurai's and Japan was just modernising itself.Must have a lot of memories.

According to researchers, the Japanese have one of the highest number of people living beyond 100 due to the diet of fish and vegetables.The man himself also gave additional information on how to stay young by keeping a dairy diet,drinking milk and swearing off alcohol and smoking.

Yeah no surprise there.Anyway, if I am gonna live to that age, what I am going to do is to open a fix deposit with a bank and choose the longest plan available.I might also wanna take a life insurance policy to for a really long period preferable indefinite.And I would certainty make a will which will never be used by my kids.

What does it feel like to live for a century?
