Can you tell me any that are really anyway? That's their point... you can talk and talk and talk about the future and what "will" happen, but unless you care more about what's going on right now, you will think yourself to death as it is. Save your energy for living.

It's funny, some more radical Taoists believed that for men to have sex and ejaculate they had to lose some of their "masculine" energy permanently - in other words, men who had lots of sex would lose their vitality and die young. There are actually many old Chinese stories that include this idea.
