Spoiler Alert: Math coming up.
Excuse me, you are obviously showing your age or lack thereof. On average life expectancy, that takes into account the age everyone dies.
Example 1937 had a lower average life expectancy than 1936 or 1938.
The war years were also lower due to the age of the soldiers.
Say an infant and a 90 year old die. ALE: Just dropped to 45.
Just so you know last month, their were several 87 year olds that passed away. There was one 64 year old and I think one 20-something overdosed.
In October, we lost a 60+ year old. He had a history of living hard.
My own father died when he was 57. He would more than likely still be alive at 77 if he had taken care of himself.
My aunt died earlier this year at the age of 98.
Sorry but 70-80 is not a pipe dream. Now can I recommend you quit trying to dig yourself out of the age hole. You are just getting in deeper.
I have a long history of digging holes or as we called it, putting our foot in our mouth.
