I wouldn't necessarily want to live forever, but I do want to - and I intend to - live until there's nothing left for me in this existence, which could be construed as forever.

As usual, most opinions in this presume it is possible only in a static environment, and that nobody else will live forever. In reality, we're going to have the biotech to extend our lifespans immensely (To at least hundreds, likely thousands, of years), likely by the end of the 20s, and the nanotech to live forever, likely by the end of the 30s or the mid 40s. We will all be able to live forever, as long as we make it to the halfway mark of this century, barring some vast planetary catastrophe.

Additionally to this, if you lived forever, the lack of FTL travel would be trivial. You could get into a modern spacecraft and travel at very low speeds to other stars, worlds, even galaxies. Because, what's a thousands, or a million years, to someone who lives forever? If we have no way to go around c in pure physical terms, we'll go around it by outlasting it.
