Well, that's not quite rational--what is the quality of life ("utility")
that succeeds surviving a heart attack?

If QTI is true, and I'm going to live a very long time, it would not
only motivate me to plan for the long term, but also to be much more
careful about my health--I'll be living in this body for much longer
than ~73 years!
