If I'm healthy and active, yes. My father-in-law is 95. He still heads up a local volunteer group in Washington DC, and has lots of friends and family around. He has a computer and knows how to use it. He has a touch of arthritis in his knees, but other than that is doing really well physically. Mentally, he's all there.

If I can be like him at that age, it would be great!
