Before we get into today's episode I just want to share I know we're towards the end of the month

I'm always late to do everything but the candle company my candle company Knox

Investa is donating 10% of all of our profits for anything

purchased on the website to donate to the Trevor Foundation and for the record

that is in addition to the other five charities that we regularly

donate a portion of our proceeds to already. So if you want to go ahead and check

out the candle company Knoxvesta.com links will be in the description box no matter if you're

listening to this on YouTube or in podcast format. With that being said,

enjoy today's episode. Do you have a death plan? That might be an extremely personal question, but it's not one that we really ask all too

often. Aside from a will, do you have anything set in place? Do you know what kind of burial

you'd want, what your options are, and how much that might cost?

Chances are that for many of you, the answer is no.

Death is an uncomfortable topic to discuss, but it's also an inevitability, whether we like it or not.

And unfortunately, if you don't have a death plan of any kind, it means that your loved ones while grieving you will have to navigate a largely broken

and difficult industry after your passing.

Let me put it into perspective. Imagine someone dear to you has just died.

First, you need to obtain a legal declaration of death and have a medical professional declare them dead.

Then, while you're still mourning you need to do this in the span of a few days

choose a funeral home choose whether you want to cremate or bury them order

an urn or a tombstone research prices, ask people to eulogize, plan a service,

write an obituary, secure the deceased property, get their mail forwarded, and notify their employer

and other friends or family.
