Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2001 16:21:10 -0000 This seems a brilliant idea - I hope it is implemented. The page ought also to include a link to http://www.geocities.com/longevityrpt/lifeins.htm where life insurance can be compared to long term direct investment, and also links to pro-cryonics insurance advisors' articles about using life insurance. That way prospective cryonicists can see all sides and chose whatever route most suits them. Here are some article from Longevity Report (some quite old) on the subject, in no particular order: http://www.geocities.com/longevityrpt/lr69.htm#Where%20Life%20Insurance%20Co mpensation http://www.geocities.com/longevityrpt/lr77.htm#Risks%20and%20Life%20Insuranc e http://www.geocities.com/longevityrpt/lr25.htm#Comments%20on%20Cryonics%20Fi nance http://www.geocities.com/longevityrpt/lr19.htm#Investment%20and%20Cryonics http://www.geocities.com/longevityrpt/lr23.htm#A%20Theory%20of%20Finance -- Sincerely, John de Rivaz my homepage links to Longevity Report, Fractal Report, music, Inventors' report, an autobio and various other projects: http://www.geocities.com/longevityrpt http://www.autopsychoice.com - should you be able to chose autopsy? > Message #15443 > Date: Wed, 24 Jan 2001 17:58:53 -0500 > From: <> > Subject: which insurance companies have paid and which haven't? > > I understand that it's typical to fund one's suspension with > proceeds from an insurance policy. > > I also understand that there has been at least one case when > an insurance company refused payment because the insured had > misled it about his HIV status. > > It would be useful, i think, for each cryonics organization to have a > list somewhere specifying which insurance companies have paid (and for > how many suspensions), which have denied payment (and perhaps for > general interest how many suspensions were not paid for by insurance).
