X-Message-Number: 31592 Date: Tue, 7 Apr 2009 18:40:29 -0400 From: <> Subject: In Defense of Rudi Hoffman Rudi has been very helpful in my efforts to build a sensible funding strategy for my cryopreservation. He helped me through the application process for insurance. However, AIG turned me down for health reasons (do you know of anyone who has not gone through the emotional torment which happens after a loved one (parent, spouse, sibling, etc.) dies?). After AIG turned me down, he recommended that I declare CI as the beneficiary on my group policy at work. He also suggested that I may look into an annuity if and when I come into money through an insurance payout (parent's death). I would seriously think about what Rudi has done for many cryonicists before criticizing him. If it weren't for him, who knows how many people would not be able to afford cryonics?
