Get a 1 metre ruler and assume each centimetre is equal to a year. Assuming you get to close to 100 years before curtains, how many centimetres have you got left? My bet is nowhere near enough.
With average life expectancy you need to cut off that ruler by the time it gets to your early 80’s. Then it’s striking how little time most people have left after they reach 65.
