(You could still do it if you chose the life ins. route, although the relatively slow growth would mean it'd be a long time before you got past whatever minimum you chose.) Even if you don't chose an organisation right at the moment, get your trust fund started. Please look at http://geocities.yahoo.com/longevityrpt/shares.htm for further details of where to invest and how to start a trust fund with as little as $3,000.
