Finite moments of Pareto order statistics

Let X(1)<X(2)<X(3)<X(4)<X(5)X_{(1)} < X_{(2)} < X_{(3)} < X_{(4)} < X_{(5)} be the order statistics based on a random sample of size 55 from a continuous distribution with the probability density function f(x)={1x2,1<x<∞ 0,otherwise.f(x)=\begin{cases} \frac{1}{x^2}, & 1 < x < \infty \ 0, & \text{otherwise.} \end{cases} Then the sum of all possible values of r∈{1,2,3,4,5}r\in\{1, 2, 3, 4, 5\} for which E(X(r))E(X_{(r)}) is finite equals __________
