Well I'd sure want old age to catch up with me outside the U.S. And I bet the guy would be healthier in Bangkok. As long as someone could survive the flights, I don't see why they'd want to exist in the U.S. when they can exist in nicer places (nicer for an older person). Check out the book, The East, The West, and Sex. The funniest part is the chapter on Thailand, and an American guy living in Thailand goes back to his midwest U.S. city (I think in Kansas) for a visit, and someone was talking about his lawnmower, and this guy thought, "I've got to get out of here."
