The business could be marketed as a "Social Security Advance" and charge a percentage.

You can get married and die first, after charging your spouse an appropriate amount based on the anticipated payout minus future discounting. Or die second, having made that kind of payout.

The important thing is to negotiate hard with medical histories and historic rates of pay being brought as evidence. You’ll probably want to get lawyers involved.
