I wonder whether the sum of money can be in a cryonics trust. Also, can it
be in more than one company. If it can, then the risk of losing it is much
reduced.

These are points that need to be considered if a "cryonics retirement
complex" is made for cryonicists to retire to. With some organisations not
talking on overseas members, the only way for people wanting to use these
organisations is to take the risk that they may perish within their working
lives, and if they are lucky retire to such a complex. Alternatively they
could join CI in the meantime.

Also it is pertinent to ask whether life insurance is considered an asset
for immigration purposes. If not, then this route is effectively blocked to
those who have chosen life insurance rather than investment. (If they are
very wealthy, of course, then they can have both.)
