is going up. And to think,its blamed on the cost of living.

If it gets too expensive, I just won't die because I can't afford it.
What's left over can be cremated and scattered in private family ceremonies like my grandmother and father. (Whom I still owe a ride in a rocket...)
Funny you should mention that......Cremation is reasonable, and if you have good friends with rocketry skills, you can have one heck of a last ride and the heck with the burial costs!
As I approach my Golden Years I'm coming to the realization that there really isn't a lot of gold. All I can hope for is to die with dignity. Like this:
I am not sure of what I think of funerals. .
Dying still costs you your life. A very expensive, yet unavoidable, proposition.
Funerals are not for you (the deceased). They are for your friends and family to 'see you off' as part of the closure process.
As far as what to do with your remains, it most surely is a racket...people make rash, emotional, expensive decisions if the planning isn't until after you've died. On the other hand, if you plan ahead of time, you can make informed, reasonable, rational, cost effective choices. One thing is to have procedures and call trees in place so that at the time it happens, your representative makes one or two calls, and the 'plan' is set in motion.
