It depends.
I get to see a whole load of really old people at one of my jobs and my
observation is that people who makes it to extreme ages have a tendency to keep
their brain quite straight. It is as if there was a goalpost past the 88 years
with a sign which read "if you reach this place, you can keep your brain til
you die."
Maybe it is just sample bias.
