You might think that this is somewhat obvious, but I don't think that it's that threshold when, you know, how old is old enough for you to think about taking care of your parents, right? But this sort of simulation make it clear to me that at one point, I need to start thinking about that. And when it's the future me telling me, it also make it very personal as well.
