The How Do You Want to DIe thread brought this question up.

Personally, I don’t. I don’t want money spent on a glitzy funeral, a plot or a headstone. No one will visit anyway and I won’t enrich the funeral industry.

Woman is Russian Orthodox. She believes that my body has to be kept whole for the rapture. She’d take it as a personal affront that I’m not waiting for her, so she wants me buried. Having said that, their tradition is no embalming, viewing at home and burial within 3 days, so not a big expense.

If I have my druthers, my body will be donated for organ donation and science. I’ve signed all the paperwork. After a year, they do the cremation. I’d be happy with that.

Honestly, after I’m dead I don’t much care. As long as no one is buying a Porsche from the proceeds.
