Maybe I’m wrong, but I interpreted this as “we’re selling the house and burning the money in voyages, cruises, fuck fest, etc”.

    That's how it starts but most people have no idea how much end-of-life care can cost, or even just regular geriatric medicine.

    I just assume that's where any money i have left is going to end up. Luckily i don't have anyone relying on the funds i possessed, but I also don't expect to have much (if any) anyway. I'm kinda relieved i don't have children for that reason, tbh. It's hard enough to make ends meet as it is. As much as i might have enjoyed starting a family, I'm afraid I'd be setting up another generation to suffer through the naivete of mine...then having little/nothing to offer on my way out!

    I'm planning on my end-of-life being real cheap. I'd prefer a clean exit over a long decline, especially if I start losing my faculties. (Not much history of dementia in my family, thankfully)
