Resolves n/a if I don’t, resolves to the schedule and dosage that I stick with for more than 3 months.

Any issue with extending the close date out a few years?

I don't think you'll take it - too many risks with this particular one.

@FRCassarino this particular longevity drug you mean? The risks seem pretty low from this writeup! https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6814615/

@ian Interesting, that certainly makes it out as safer than what I've read in the past. From memory, I don't think there's been studies showing that it increases lifespan on humans yet (only on mice), and at least at some dosages it's a pretty serious drug (used as an immunosuppressant). So at the time at least, I thought that the risks outweighed the potential upsides.

@cos do you/have you taken it?

@ian Nope! It's on my bucket list, right next to signing up for cryonics.
