If, if, if: yes I know, there is no guarantee. There is no proof. I make bets. There is little profit to be found where there is no risk involved. Immortality is just that biggest profit possible, for which many risks must be taken.
You know what's worse than my bets: someone not making them. That person sure is never coming back when the body and brain rot and turns to dust.
Anyway, if that is what you want, and you made an informed decision, I respect our differences

- mannykannot 8y ago> I make bets. There is little profit to be found where there is no risk involved. Immortality is just that biggest profit possible, for which many risks must be taken. Every day carries the risk that your essential self will be destroyed - through a violent accident (even just a fall), a stroke, a disease... and every day, your mental capacity deteriorates slightly. If you are serious about taking on big risks for the chance of immortality, you should be planning on preserving the state of your brain in the immediate future. Of course, if you don't think the technology for doing the preservation is good enough yet, then bold talk of taking big risks is premature.
- 1996 8y agoThat would be irrational. I would say the odds of my bet are 1 in 1000 maybe. If I stop enjoying the certain life I have now, the low probability of the bet are not good enough to compensate for that. I just try to not take too many risks. No MMA!
