If your implication is – that it is not a good idea -you are mistaken. Once a person is eighty he has good chance of living a few more years. It is very unlikely that the nite of marriage that the man will die.
Boaz was an exception. His Tafkid in life was to produce Moshiach. Once he did that – he didn’t need to remain on this world any longer.
