SPY is down almost 20% YTD, and with inflation, that's more like 25-30% in real terms. There can always be more downside but the risk/reward of buying puts seems pretty bad right now. You're either betting on catching the last 5-10% downward move, or you're betting on a major recession where we drop 50%-ish from the highs.
I like selling fairly OTM covered calls right now.

It's not a binary, one-time decision "do I live a normal lifespan or get locked into a billion+ year existence no matter how horrible it gets."
You can always stop the treatment after "only" 500 or 5000 or 5 million years if you want. Take a year to go over the pros and cons of living every millennium or so.
