Can wealth be preserved for use after reanimation ?
The Reanimation Foundation is a Lichtenstein organization that has allowed people with more than $100,000 to set that money aside to be invested until reanimation. States like South Dakota or Alaska that have no state income tax and no laws against perpetual trusts are good places to create a perpetual cryonics trust − to preserve wealth for use after reanimation. However, no one knows what the value of this money will be in a future of vast wealth and technology. In most cases cryonicists would be much better advised to spend their money on improving the quality of their own cryopreservation. This includes spending more money on creating sounder financial arrangements, sounder legal arrangements, better response time if they have a medical emergency, readily available equipment and assistance, etc. Even money spent for the general good of cryonics − such as money spent on cryonics research and money spent on strengthening cryonics organizations may be of considerable personal benefit
