Personally, death really messes with my mind, and I try not to think about it (and related bad things) in the short-mid term. I don’t see that I’m in a position to do much to avoid death/related bad things right now, and so I don’t see that there’s much benefit to thinking about it right now. The cost to me is that it makes me mildly unhappy and risks moments of extreme unhappiness.
Why think about these sorts of things?

You remind me of this guy.
