The chances that you will you be alive for the 300th Anniversary of America

[Concerned American]

What might my 1976 2 dollar bills be worth by then?

$2.25?

My mom worked in a bank when those came out and she got one for everyone in the family and took them to the post office to get them postmarked on the first day of issue. LOL, but you may be right, I don't think they've gained any value to speak of.

1976 a great time. It is the year I graduated high school. It would be great if my health stayed good and make it the 300th birthday of this nation.

I was 10-11 years old back in 1976. I recall doing a lot of dumpster diving behind dive bars, looking for bicentennial beer cans. Falstaff, Fyfe and Drum, Iron City. I was a collector.

I also used to raid the dumpster behind a local Frito-Lay warehouse and then sell the bags of chips and Fritos at school.

Nope, not a chance for me, I'd be 121.

Maybe there will be a cure for old age by then.

They printed so many of them, and no stores wanted to accept them.

Yeah, I bet it caused a lot of problems, no place to put them in cash drawers.

I'll be lucky for 2030.

Nope. I have a CHANCE to see Halleys Comet for the second time though in 2061. Not likely, but a chance

I’ll be 120 on July 4, 2076. And, I’m already starting to disintegrate.

Same here. I've already lived longer than anyone in my immediate family. I take that as a gift.
