Making money [...] is more difficult than I think most highly-trained people realize.
The cost of a life insurance policy that covers cryonics is, I think, much less expensive than most people realize. I did the math myself recently and I think it came out to, conservatively, $500/year, which I could easily afford on a retail / call center paycheck. It is definitely worth your time to at least look in to the exact cost for you personally. You’re young so you’re probably looking at significantly less than me.
Disclaimer: I’m not signed up either; I’m currently trying to sort out why. Discovering it was that cheap has removed a very major obstacle that I wasn’t aware of, however.
Doing this exercise has really forced me to clarify my thinking on this—you should try it.
I did a little research and it looks like it would be less than $15 a month for me, which removes that objection—except for the fact I can’t buy life insurance until I’m 18.
