I certainly plan to, not at the moment as I have no job, and figure at 24 now I still have a few years were I can still get it at a cheaper rate.
Unless you're hit by the proverbial bus tomorrow, of course. Or get diagnosed with something that makes you uninsurable.
My (UK!) life insurance costs me £6 a month. That's 19p a day. A homeless person could afford that much, right?
Although I live in the UK so not entirely sure what it's gonna end up being in the end.
Sorry - Where what's going to be?
But interested to know how many people have bothered with it. Like I have little faith in it
I have no faith in it (though I do have not a small amount of confidence in it). I don't operate on faith. I operate on reason. It's an intelligent version of Pascal's gamble. If it doesn't work, I'll have lost nothing by trying that I wouldn't have lost anyway by not trying.
esspially the way they do it now
Who is "they"? How do "they" do it now? Are you referring to the recent improvements in vitrification protocols? What is your source for your knowledge of how "they" are doing it now?
but as people point out it's better then nothing, just concerns me the cost really I guess and I don't imagine I'll be earning much for a long time, if ever.
Have you investigated just how little it costs?
I work for a charity, for a pittance. I love my job, it's really enjoyable, doesn't feel like work, etc - but it really doesn't pay well at all. But frankly, I could sell the Big Issue for a living and still easily afford my cryonics expenses.
Unless you have some health difficulties that make life insurance difficult for you, money is only a barrier to cryonics for those who have not yet examined how little it costs and are erroneously assuming they need to be rich first.
Again, I really hope you don't feel like I'm picking on you here - it's just something of a personal mission of mine to get the word out that cryonics is available and affordable. I went for years without knowing that. I could have been killed during that time. I nearly was killed during that time, come to think of it. I'd really hate for someone to die because of my inaction; for this reason I trust you'll understand and forgive my focus on this point!
We're all in this boat together.
