There is an indication that life != ki in dragonball.
Tenshin's Kikohou is a powerful technique because it uses his life energy not just ki, I believe that Roshi gets upset about Tenshinhan knowing it.
But, during the Buu Saga Goku goes SSJ3 and it eats up all his time on earth, which seems to indicate that the 24 hours of life Goku was given was eaten up through extreme ki use.
