Thank you very much. I will move this to solved.
Btw, they weren't 'required' to, there were just financial incentives to do so. (but as an aside, there was no genetic testing, so I guess they were relying on people not diddling the system?)An aside, there are some gene complexes that predict (60% accuracy) whether you'll live to be 100
