this is just a thought I had - mean spirited of course. But here goes:
There's not enough money in the world to allow me to LLTiNT. But...
If I could "live like there is no tomorrow," I would walk away from all my responsibilites and never look back. That's death, I figure. No memories, no past to awaken the sleeping in the night, no remorse; of course, no more bills to pay, no more chores to do, no regrets, no conversations with people who share what you have lived through. The temptation is to spend all your resources, eat whatever and whenever you like, have sex or not - depending on your inclinations, go where you want and do whatever... legal, criminal, hedonistic, ethical, thoughtful, generous, you get the picture. The choices have always been there. It's the moral code and our connections to other human beings that keep us from chucking it all and "going to the devil." Taking a vacation is not "living like there is no tomorrow". Now, taking up extreme sports - maybe... too bad I'm too old and physically unfit for that... I'll just sit and eat my way to "no tomorrow".
