    However, what we do know for sure is that we’re all going to die some day,

    We don’t know that either. Maybe one day science will discover eternal life.

    Assume the more likely [outcome]

    There’s absolutely no knowledge about what is on the other side. So there’s no more or less likely outcomes.

      Okay, well, I’m not going to argue with you. Point is, you should believe whatever’s most comforting for you to believe, especially in accordance with your statement that no outcome is more or less likely. Since all outcomes are equally likely, there’s no use in worrying about it at all. Whatever happens, happens, and all worrying about it now does is make the time before you die less enjoyable.
