WSJ.com - A Cold Calculus Leads Cryonauts To Put Assets on Ice:
"You can't take it with you. So Arizona resort operator David Pizer has a plan to come back and get it.
Like some 1,000 other members of the 'cryonics' movement, Mr. Pizer has made arrangements to have his body frozen in liquid nitrogen as soon as possible after he dies. In this way, Mr. Pizer, a heavy-set, philosophical man who is 64 years old, hopes to be revived sometime in the future when medicine has advanced far beyond where it stands today.
[...]
At least a dozen wealthy American and foreign businessmen are testing unfamiliar legal territory by creating so-called personal revival trusts designed to allow them to reclaim their riches hundreds, or even thousands, of years into the future.
And because Mr. Pizer doesn't wish to return a pauper, he's taken an additional step: He's left his money to himself."
