Q: A new survey found that only 1% of people want to know everything about their future in advance, including how they will die. However, most people do want to know about this in advance?

A: the gender of their unborn baby

According to a new survey, only 1% of people say they would want the ability to look into their future and see everything that happens to them . . . including when and how they die.

A little less than half of people say they’d be willing to look into the future if they could only see the POSITIVE things that would happen.

But the majority of people don’t want ANY spoilers.  The researchers found people didn’t even want to know fairly trivial things in advance, like if their favorite team will win a game or what they’re getting for Christmas.

There’s only one thing that the majority of people say they DO want to know in advance . . . the sex of their unborn child.
