I need to be convinced that cryonics is better than nothing, and quite frankly I’m not.
For now I will stick to maintaining my good health through proven methods, maximizing my chances to live to see future advances in medicine. That seems to be the highest probability method of living practically forever, right? (and no I’m not trying to create a false-dilemma here, I know I could do both).
If cryonics were free and somebody else did all the work, I’m assuming you wouldn’t object to being signed up. So how cheap (in terms of both effort and money) would cryonics have to be in order to make it worthwhile for you?
at the level of confidence I have in it now I would not contribute any money, maybe $10 annual donation because i think it is a good cause.
If I was very rich I might contribute a large amount of money to cryonics research although I think I would rather spend on AGI or nanotech basic science.

yeah for free would be fine.
