Never been into that sort of thing. If given a choice of going out and raising Hell or staying home, I'll choose the latter. As I've gotten older, I've found that the quiet life is more acceptable than being a "party boy."

Fair enough, and I do understand. My wife is that way while I am the opposite (more social). What I still don't understand is the cryogenics thing. Why would one want to be frozen after death? It just seems to be a way to take people's money to me.

I read somewhere that the best way to discover your inner worth is to try to write your own obituary. I tried once….Couldn't get past the first sentence.

Take whose money? I pay for the procedure and "upkeep" through a life insurance policy. I pay the premiums (and it's paid in full) and no one else. Unless the insurance company goes belly-up, no one else is involved in the financial end of keeping my old a$$ frozen.

OK, but it is like buying property on Mars, isn't it? By the time we get there will it really be worth it?

I mean by the time they are able to cure whatever killed you, do you really want to be alive in that old worn out body you died in? I am thinking that eternal life would get really old after awhile.
