Cryonics aren’t available in Israel. And I’m pretty sure they won’t be, because our government enforces religious observances at time of death.
The most practical course for me might be to figure out myself that I was dying soon and fly to the US while I was alive, and get cryopreserved there. I don’t know if this is legally possible for a non-US resident, or if it is economically feasible for someone already sick and uninsured. I’ll have to find out. I don’t have much hope of finding a way, though.
I give 5% of my income, which will go to 10% once I reach financial security
These are very round numbers and so, on the outside view, I suspect they are completely arbitrary. How did you choose them?

Oh, quite. From “Suggested tithe is 10% of income” I got “most people think a 10% income reduction doesn’t terribly affect their finances”, I divided by two because I’m a starving student and it’s better if I adjust up more often than down.

Yes, to live it’s OK, but to die there?!
A 1996 law allows alternative civilian burials, and a judge authorized cremation in 2007, so maybe it’d be possible to get around that?
