When I first saw the new I dismissed the idea of actually putting effort into pre-ordering, as I suspect now, because it reminded some part of me about political calls to participate which account very badly in my previous experience.

But now I have seen Twitter post of EY where he says that pre-orders are really important, so I try to reconsider that.

Spend 30$ on that book is not a problem for me, even if I am not sure that it will actually give us any more time being alive.

But in all other senses it looks like a very complicated question to me. I can't pay because of sanctions (I checked on Google play). The ways around I heard about sound insanely complicated eg ordering remotely a card from Kazakhstan. And also I don't want to deanonymise myself by paying requisites. I am not familiar with crypto currency and it's legality, but as I heard it's really easy to lose your money trying to use it without understanding, so I wasn't trying. I am not even sure that I should try to make a way around sanctions, like, EY warns against pre-ordering 100 copies you will not read, what if it is similar?

Also I mostly feel that I am looking at this question stuck in completely wrong framing and I don't know how to solve it.

So I am making an ask to others: what should I do? What is right framing? Which are the factors I should consider? Will it be really important if I will pre-order that book, in the sense that it still costs all unusual to typical reader of call on Twitter problems?

And if it costs it, how should I order that book? I have a feeling in my head that considering which solutions people on lesswrong are ready to consider it may be something really not usual, like finding somebody who will be okay with pre-ordering that book for me now in exchange of me paying in crypto few years later a sum corrected to inflation and market growth and adjusted by manifold estimate of probability of me not paying. If such unusual solutions are in consideration I think it's possible to actually find something which will satisfy all my restrictions. If it costs it at all, because I suppose I probably indeed in some rare part of people who read this call, so even if all people who will think like me will not try to overcome obstacles it still will be tiny loss.

(If I need, I can provide some additional explanations, make corrections into phasing etc, I just really don't want to end up deciding to do it later every time)
