X-Message-Number: 1075 Newsgroups: sci.cryonics From: (Paul Bonneau,,) Subject: Bank Accounts for the Suspended? Message-ID: <> Date: Tue, 28 Jul 1992 22:54:52 GMT Hi. A quick question. It seems to me that being declared legally dead while in suspension is a double-edged sword. It allows you to collect the life insurance policy that pays for the suspension, but it likely prevents you from having a bank account or investments like, say, a mutual fund. I tend to agree with Drexler that the nanotechnology required for reanimation will be available within the century so it seems a good guess that financial institutions will continue to exist more or less as they do now (they have continued to do so for several hundred years so far). So it would be nice to have some money in the bank when you wake up. Is there any way around this? It seems unlikely that I can form a trust given today's laws for the future benefit of a cryonaut. cheers - Paul. Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=1075
