    Someone is going to have to pay for your funeral, and it sure as won't be you. You're dead.

    If you're willing to put that type of burden on someone you care about (and trust me, someone WILL have to deal with it) for an extra 10 bucks a month...then yes, you're an asshole.

    I married for looks, not intelligence.

    Point is, she's not that smart.

    Whatever we're using for money, yeah. Think of it as a pack of smokes in prison.

    If she goes before you do will you be pissed if she has no insurance? Or are you just going to fire up the grill?

    With the at ude you constantly display here, you have to ask? In this particular instance:

    - You call your wife dumb.
    - You don't give a what happens to her or anyone else after you pass on.
    - You defend your decision with little more than " it, I'll be dead."

    That you even have to ask whether or not you're out of line shows an incredible amount of contempt and is the epitome of the "me-first" at ude that pervades the country. No thanks.

    I'm married (sans children) and could never imagine leaving my wife in the lurch. We don't have a boatload of insurance but what we do have (term) should take care of expenses (including the mortgage) should I pass on before we reach retirement.

    To marry someone and show such flagrant disregard for them is not, IMO, what marriage is all about. Obviously you feel differently.

    This is the first we've talked, I'm "johnsmith" good to meet you.
    - You call your wife dumb.
    Quit putting words in my mouth, I said she was "not smart".
    - You don't give a what happens to her or anyone else after you pass on.
    It will be tough to give a when I'm dead.
    - You defend your decision with little more than " it, I'll be dead."
    Not a decision to defend, it's a fact.

    That you even have to ask whether or not you're out of line shows an incredible amount of contempt and is the epitome of the "me-first" at ude that pervades the country. No thanks.
    You take the internets too serious chief.

    Honestly, SFIE and I didn't have great insurance and are now in the process of acquiring good policies. We're really hoping I can still qualify for permanent insurance and I feel stupid for not having pursued this earlier. We started this before we got pregnant again, because of the simple reality check of realizing that neither of us would be able to pay the bills - not the house, the car, a funeral . . . nothing. And in this economy, I don't fancy trying to sell our hole of a house while coping with my husband's death.

    You don't need huge amounts, you don't need a permanent policy or a investment vehicle. But basic term policies to cover the costs of funeral expenses, house, car, debt . . . that is just basic, man. That's taking care of each other.

    We decided to pre-pay for our funerals. I don't want that expense burden placed on my family or his.

    And funerals aren't cheap., unless you get cremated I guess. I bet cremations have gone up in price too.

    Cremations cost just as much as burials, I promise you.

    Well, my brother showed me the difference and it wasn't even close. Maybe he just had different info? I think it depends on direct cremation or not.
    The difference was over $2k
    But yeah, the costs can be similar.

    I saw your post after .... at Sunset there was very little difference in price. I guess we should have shopped around?

    There are so many options that the price between cremation and burial could be the same. He went with a direct cremation and bought the urn himself. He also did not choose to have any preparations done to the body since there was no viewing.
    He kept it very simple.

    I think we have too ...

    I can not believe that you are that self abosrbed to not think about the debt that you will leave behind with your so called loved ones, cause it's apparent that you do not love them enough to keep them out of debt after you die.
