Well, let me ask you a question. If you are throwing a birthday bash tomorrow, are you going to plan the details like the food, the cake, venue, decor, who to invite and what not on the same day?
How would that be?
The good thing about birthday is, you know the exact date of a birthday.
BUT.... Do you know when is your funeral?
Just like a birthday party, a celebration of life (as in Funeral) needs some details to make it meaningful and to bring comfort to loved ones left behind. Do you prefer a cremation or a traditional burial? Do your loved ones know what you want? or is she or he capable of doing the arrangement? Where? Closed casket? Ash scattering? The final outfit? Flowers? Who would you like to be notified? and a hundred more decisions to make...
Imagine your loved ones taking care of these details while he or she is grieving.
Wouldn't it be more comforting for a spouse left behind if the these final arrangement are taken care of and not start from scratch. Sure you have the money, but would the money buy them peace of mind at this difficult time?
Having the money is a great thing, but arranging funeral is another thing.
