Right now I have a substantial amount of assets—most of which would be extremely difficult to liquidate or borrow against—but my income (and expected future income) is fairly low. So term life insurance is not going to be a good way to fund cryonics for me, just like it probably wouldn’t be for a retired person. At the Cryonics Institute, standby costs an additional $45,000 - it would be a lot easier for me to pay $28,000 than $73,000.
