I'm too scared to choose, as if that would some how seal my fate...

but it would be 70 or 80;

i think 80 is realistic based on general health and genetics, but feel like due to some personal habits (don't try guessing they're lamer than you would think, on the level of nail-biting or tooth grinding kind of stuff) i might be a little earlier for the end.

Yes, it could be like Buddha renouncing your life yourself.
However, we are not Buddha so do not worry.
However, contemplating death help you to live longer and follow the path sooner without postponing it.
That also helps you to practice Brahma Vihara and make some sense in your life.a

I suggest persons who chose below 60 strongly look at their health and spiritual behavior.
I know someone who was cleared from blader cancer last week.
He said he changed his life style after he was diagnosed with cancer.
