For many of us, where we end our days will more than likely be a choice of a hospital, at home or in our favourite place.
Yet, trust Elon Musk to have a very different answer for where he'd like to see out the end of his life.
And as unusual of a place it might be for everyone else, for the Tesla founder, it makes a bit of sense when you think about it.

According to Page Six, Musk attended Michael Milken’s annual Hamptons Prostate Cancer Foundation gala across the August weekend, where he mingled with other billionaires including Julia Koch, Bill Ackman, Stephen Schwarzman, Rob Citrone and Patrice Motsepe.
A source further claimed to the publication that Milken engaged in a 'wide ranging one-on-one chat' with the Twitter CEO, where '[Musk was] asked about the success of Starlink', to which he 'talked about how bad cell service was in the Hamptons'.
Starlink is Musk's satellite system, which is in turn a subsidiary of Space X - and it recently gave an isolated tribe in the Amazon access to an internet connection.
According to the source, Musk was heard saying: "I had important texts to respond to on the way here and couldn’t… people were asking where I was, Timbuktu?"
Then it was claimed by a source that it was revealed that Musk's ideal location to die was 'on Mars'.
In response to Page Six, he later clarified that Milken had read out an old quote of his, where he'd said: "I'd like to die on Mars, just not on impact."
He also told the outlet that the Wifi 'is in desperate need of an upgrade', adding: "I haven’t been to the Hamptons in many years and was only in the area for ~24 hours at Milken’s request for his cancer charity.”
In other news, Musk was recently named in a criminal lawsuit filed by Algerian boxer, Imane Khelif.
Khelif ended up making headlines during this year's Olympics after becoming caught up in a gender eligibility test row.
After her fight with Italian boxer, Angela Carini, lasted 46 seconds before Carini pulled the plug, reports began to surface regarding Khelif's alleged failure of a International Boxing Association's (IBA) gender eligibility test - then led into the questioning of Khelif's gender by social media users.
Khelif was born a woman and is listed as a woman in her passport.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the Algerian Olympic Committee both spoke up in defence of Khelif - with the IOC writing that 'the gender and age of the athletes are based on their passport'.
Following the Olympics, Khelif launched an complaint against those which French authorities have described as having committed alleged 'acts of aggravated cyber harassment'.
Musk, along with Harry Potter author JK Rowling, were confirmed to have been named in the suit by Khelif's lawyer and could face time behind bars - as well as a hefty fine.
