" ============================ I have a wonderful trust set up to hold my assets (and increase them) while I am in suspension. These trusts are complicated to set up because of the laws dealing with dead people (are frozen people dead - try to cover all bases), how long can a trust last, can your relatives bust your trust, what if the cryonics company that stores you goes bust, can the money be used to protect your suspension and get your frozen body moved, will taxes eat up your trust, and tons of other problems. I think my trust handles most, maybe all, of them. Even if you don't have a lot of wealth, you can set one up, fund it with life insurance proceeds, and when you come back, you should be very wealthy. If you already have a lot of wealth, a cryotrust may be the best way to protect that wealth. I don't have my trust on a disc or I would be glad to post it. But what I would rather do is have a conference once or twice a year at Creekside and have the attorney that set mine up be there to explain how to do it and give each attendee personal advice and answer all questions. If there are others out there that are interested and would be willing to attend a weekend trust retreat, let me know. A possible agenda might be like this: Optional - arrive Friday evening = dinner social get together with other like-minded people Saturday , breakfast a lecture on the trust pass out copies and written material lunch afternoon = free time to review the material dinner evening a conference where we all get together and ask questions of the expert. Sunday breakfast individual meetings with the expert for those who want one. lunch go home after lunch. ------=_NextPart_000_0025_01C2A1C7.5690F6E0 Content-Type: text/html; [ AUTOMATICALLY SKIPPING HTML ENCODING! ] Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=20599
