What does "save yourself a lifetime" mean?
At 2:43 in this YouTube video (https://youtu.be/_LzXpE1mjqA), Jimmy Kimmel said "just stay home and swallow it and you save yourself a lifetime of being the most hated man in America..."

Does he mean "by doing that, the man can avoid to be the most hated man in America 'for the rest of his life'"?
