Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional

I think I would prefer it the other way around.

Growing old up is mandatory, growing up old is optional.

"Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional"

I think I would prefer it the other way around.

Growing old up is mandatory, growing up old is optional.

I disagree completely.

First, what use is living, if you can't have a youthful outlook?

Secondly. What is the alternative to growing old?
Growing dead?
