Life is a "crap shoot." I'm in my 60s and did all the things you've mentioned, for many years. Also smoked three packs of Marlboros every day and also chewed Red Man. Drank to the extreme excess up till age 30. I also used to install asbestos and breathed the dust all day lone. Worked in a painting shop that lacked ventilation and sprayed until I had to run outside to breathe. Had that lifestyle for 30 year - and to a lesser degree - still do.
And on the different subject -also drove a Corvairs for many years and contrary to Ralph Nader's warning - I survived pretty well.
On the other hand - my cousin died of kidney failure at age 23. My brother died of liver failure at age 64 and he was a "clean living" college math professor. Never got his hands dirty. Didn't smoke nor drink and hardly chased women.
We are all built different and react to different things in different ways. I'll be the first to admit I wish I'd lived a cleaner life when younger - but oh well. Who knows?
