Another option is to go in to medicine, then donate money to groups that are working on life extension. If people working on life extension are funding-limited (as opposed to researcher-limited, where they have the funds and they just need researchers to grant them to), then this would seem to be a better choice. (Dunno how much funding is available for life extension research from mainstream academic funding channels.)
