Every 60+ year old would likely take this deal. In most cases they won't make it past 15 years anyways.

Silly! I'm 72. In 15 years I'll only be 87, merely average longevity, and unless I stack up a plane or sports car, I expect to beat those odds.

Average life expectancy at birth in the USA is 71.5 years. Now that number might trend a bit higher as the years go on, but you are beating the average if you live for a single day past 71.5 years.

I'm not "at birth". Actuarial tables say 87.8 years average for a woman my age. And I figure to beat those odds.
