yea... I remember watching this show about human super powers and one of them was how if an organism doesn't breed until very very late in life they can potentially spread a gene that mother nature turns on that allows your children to live longer. Basically it tricks your body because the only purpose of being alive is to create more life, so if you aren't creating more life it thinks you need longer to create it. They did some experiment with house flies or something and got them to live for up to 16 days, which is apparantly pretty old for a fly.

So the career woman is supposed to be good in that regard.
