describes the cryonicist hero as a "brilliant industrialist named Justin Cord."
Doesn't that reinforce the stereotype, which we keep trying to correct, that 
only wealthy alpha males resembling Ayn Rand heroes can afford cryonics?" 

I am, by no means, well-off.

However, I managed to declare my cryonics provider the beneficiary of my
group insurance policy.

I have also declared my cryonics provider the beneficiary of my 401K funds, and

I plan to direct any inheritances which I may receive to fund my 
cryopreservation.


I tried to buy my own insurance, but the carriers with whom I communicated 
believe that

seeking professional help for those in the grieving process are too much of a 
risk.


I was just laid off from my recent job, and am now trying to find ways to cover 
any gaps in my coverage.
