2 years is a long time with all the ai advancements coming out, i'd continue doing normal routine while waiting for the cure

So, keep working until dead. Thanks for the input, Shmuley

Hiking is not an option, nor is any other moderately physical activity

Aint nothing left but digital art. You'll need to compartmentalize to not lose your mental capabilties.

So that even if you do travel. You still keep these behaviours for the sharpest final months.

I'd personally just buy a giant tv either micro-rgb mini led or an oled like LG G5 80 inches or whatever. Plus sound treat the room for the speakers + dual subwoofer at minimum. On the subwoofers. DIY subs called "destroyer" will shake your house. Have fun having the cops claled on you lol.
Watch movies from before y2k.
And read the bible because why not.

Buy meta quest 3 for virtual reality videos. You can't jump off mountains in real life so vr will have to make do

>Where would you go and what would you do?
Go jump in a sulfer pond in Yellowstone. It's better than larping on /trv/

>travel with terminal illness
actual had this case in my family
though with quite a bit more than 100k in the bank after selling his apartment

he bought a build out expedition Unimog and did overlanding for ~1 year
Germany to China via Turkey and central Asia (avoiding Russia), toured around China for like 3months, then shipped over to South America for ~4months, mainly in the South
returned after he collapsed somewhere in the middle of nowhere in Brazil
then rented a big lakeside house and constantly had family over (primarily vacations because free nice lake house with extra bedrooms...)
also had a live in caregiver
after another ~6month, January, after big family Christmas and NYE, he just sat at the lakefront and voluntarily overdosed on his pain medication and high on mushrooms

but really depends what the terminal illness is
most don't allow you to travel for long and your health will deteriorate quite quickly
so you might only have time for 2-3 bucketlist trips
plus medication makes it a lot harder to travel (unless you have a giant car you can modify to hide it)

I'd go take ayahuasca in Peru. That would help me come to terms with death and it would also tell me what I need to do with the remaining years I have left

Holy fuck he nailed it. What was his mindset like? I'd think I'm doing all the things I'd love but dying would make me sad idk

If I were in that position, my priority would be to balance meaningful experiences with pure stillness, focusing on places that feel timeless. With $100,000, I’d skip the "golden faucets" of luxury and invest in access to nature and quality time with loved ones.
Here is how I would spend my final 24 months:

Year 1: High Energy & Grand Wonders

While my strength is still at its peak, I’d chase the sights that make you feel small in the best way possible.

Japan in Spring: I’d start in Kyoto. I’d spend weeks walking through cherry blossoms and staying in traditional ryokans, eating the best kaiseki meals of my life.

The Swiss Alps: I’d rent a chalet in Wengen. Every morning would be spent staring at the Eiger and Jungfrau peaks, breathing the crispest air on Earth.

An African Safari: I’d head to the Serengeti or the Okavango Delta. Seeing the raw cycle of life and death in the wild would offer a strange, comforting perspective on my own journey.

The Dolomites, Italy: I’d drive through the mountain passes in a vintage convertible, stopping at small villages to share wine and pasta with strangers.

Year 2: Slow Living & Deep Reflection

As my energy began to fade, I would stop "traveling" and start "dwelling."

A Greek Island Sanctuary: I’d rent a small, white-washed house on a quiet island like Sifnos or Naxos. I’d spend my days watching the Aegean Sea, writing letters to the people I love, and eating fresh olives and bread.

The Highlands of Scotland: I’d find a cozy cottage with a fireplace and a massive library. The mist, the rain, and the rugged coastlines are the perfect backdrop for quiet contemplation.

Bhutan: I’d visit the monasteries tucked into the Himalayas. Their focus on "Gross National Happiness" and the spiritual acceptance of life’s end would provide the peace I’d need for the final stretch.

I say do some variation of a world cruise that lasts about half a year in the beginning to see as much countries as possible before my health goes to complete shit. After the cruise I will hang out with friends and family until I die. Had a coworker in this situation with a terminal illness and at first you're cognizant but as time goes on the disease just eats away at you so traveling is something I'd do sooner rather than later.

>What was his mindset like?
wasn't super close to him
not the most adventurous type, but had a caravan, so overlanding wasn't that far off his usual style

>but dying would make me sad
he was in his late 50s with an adult child and a (newborn) grandchild in the last months
so I guess that softens the blow somewhat

>>2866982
pretty much this. They do that with terminal cancer patients already but with lsd/shrooms. Can't just ignore that you will die soon and still enjoy consooming
