That was me describing the current state of affairs. When I get my project working, we will be able to modify DNA in adult humans, which is why the project would be such a big deal and why we'd be able to cure almost any disease, including aging.

For the rest, yeah, I'll look into pitching it to the billionaire's immortality research companies. I'm definitely skeptical, but any source of funding is good.
It is. For a million, it is a steal.
Give the Europeans a chance first to finance you. When it will be used for evil you don't have to worry because you gave everybody the chance to finance it with public money.
If you are generous you could also try doing a kickstarter. It would be interesting to see if the public is willing to finance such basic research on their own.
Good luck!
