My wife was in the funeral industry for a while and studying mortuary sciences. She says she left because it was too depressing being pressured to upsell grieving families all the time.

    There is a lesson here. Have these conversations today with your loved ones about final arrangements. I promise you that many of them would rather be buried in a casket from Costco and have the money spent on literally anything else.

    This is especially true if they're going to be cremated.

    All of my loved ones want to have their organs donated to science, then have the leftovers cremated.

    Put my brain in whatever robot you will use to serve as a hard drive.

    What could go wrong?
