If you mean Cryonics, that's a choice I can sympathize with (though not the one I made). If you meant to imply that you refrain from gambling, I beg to differ: life is gambling. Every time you drive a car, you put yourself at considerable risk of life on the chance that such risk will be outweighed by the benefits of extra mobility. Every action you take is likely to have risks and benefits that you implicitly gamble on; some gambles are just more obvious than others.
