Ruby: How to add 10 years to DateTime.now

Question

In ruby I am using DateTime.now.next_year.to_time to get the time and date of a day one year from now. This now needs to be changed to 10 years. How can I do this.

Answer 1

This seems to work:

 DateTime.now.next_year(10).to_time
 #=> 2027-04-14 20:40:38 +0000 

Accepts negative numbers too and does what you'd expect.
