羅伯特?米勒

??? 加拿大億萬富豪羅伯特?米勒行事低調(diào)——就像你看到的這張照片那樣——他避免引起外界關(guān)注，不過這并不意外著他希望在死后銷聲匿跡。這位67歲的商界人士把富昌電子（Future Electronics ）打造成了世界第三大電子元器件分銷商，他還為慈善事業(yè)慷慨解囊。不過有一個組織尤其引起他的興趣：阿爾科爾生命延續(xù)基金會（Alcor Life Extension Foundation）。這個基金會采用人體冷凍或超冷溫度，在宣告死亡后盡快保存人類的大腦。這個基金會的成員將在未來醫(yī)療技術(shù)發(fā)展后被重新喚醒。羅伯特?米勒捐贈了大量資金用于阿爾科爾基金會的研究，可以說是對自己的未來進(jìn)行投資，因?yàn)槊桌沼?jì)劃在死后實(shí)行冷凍保存。（財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)）

Robert Miller

??? Canadian billionaire Robert Miller is a private man -- as you can see from this photo -- who avoids the limelight, but it doesn't mean he wants to disappear after he dies. The 67-year-old businessman who built Future Electronics into the world's third-largest electronics components distributor, has given his fortunes generously to charity. But one organization particularly intrigued him: the Alcor Life Extension Foundation, which uses cryonics or ultra-cold temperatures as soon as possible after legal death to preserve the brain. "Members" are to be reawakened when future medical technologies are developed. Miller has donated to much of Alcor's research, literally an investment in his future since Miller plans to be cryo-preserved after death.
