When I am terminally ill and old

A person from The Economist - an awesome weekly newspaper - wrote an article regarding looking into curing terminal illness for old people, and living in peace knowing that death is inescapable. It is here.

Here's what I quickly concluded for myself when I am old (like over 65) and terminally ill.

1. I do not want to be cured from a terminal illness that would only extend my life by say 3 years. That cure would be far too expensive, should I have to use my own money.
2. Instead I want to see that money more effectively invested into saving more people's lives. Those that are young and in poverty. I want to leave a positive impact, rather than spend all the money on treatment of myself.
   
3. So where do I want to see that money go to? Tear Fund or World Vision of course.
4. The other thing is that this is my choice. I won't judge how others use their money under similar circumstances, since it isn't right to compare my situation with another.
