Fuck.
Well the second part is quite easy, I think, because you wouldn't feel or experience anything the clone is doing.

A stranger doing the exact same things I do would not make me feel any better about dieing, even if that stranger was exactly the same as me.

Even if what turns you off about death is not leaving your legacy, as opposed to not being able to continue to experience life, it isn't really your legacy if the clone is doing it.
