Re <<You could die before the big event!>>

true, but the carrying cost is minuscule relative to the downside insurance value and taking account of the upside payout, and if the wager is made in corporate name, the beneficiary(ies) can be wired into the dna of the structure and pass by the tax wastrels as sum - zero - inheritance.

should one provide for 100-years of carrying cost up-front as part of the account structure, and pass the keys and joint signature authorities to more than one beneficiary, then it is unlikely that the treasure chest would be raided, because the net sum of the chest is very close to - zero - at all times until the call of duty on Doomsday morning or Apocalypsenight

in such a construct, and together w/ AI-enabled digital tomb, the organisers of the construct would be collecting a small % but potentially numerically large administration fee annuity into the far future

the beneficiaries of each successive generation can communicate w/ the 'trust' originator ancestor via the AI cyber tomb facility as conceived so long ago Message 17050657 circa 2/12/2002 <<... and scarily, we will probably grow old together, in a perpetual highschool summer holiday.


In a way, this Internet thing is very scary when one stops for one moment to think about it, i.e. I can leave messages of doom for my grand kids, as long as SI survives or its content become public domain forever floating in cyberspace, or better still, a new service introduced by, say, AOL, called Cyber Tomb, where a duper computer can learn our respective subscriber personality based on e-mail and posting traffic, and upon our own demise, keep our messages of whatever coming, and answer e-mail queries from our own great grand kids.>>
