[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In our family, people save for this eventuality and hope it doesn't happen. If it does, they have the money for it, and if it doesn't then that money goes to their kids. Same with deaths - my cemetery plot and headstone were paid for when I was a baby. My nephew and niece are 7 and 3 and theirs' are too. [/quote] Lol, this is the strangest thing I’ve heard. Although fantastic! (I guess?)[/quote] I honestly thought this was standard. I was SHOCKED in my mid 20's when a friend's relative died and she talked about people giving donations. I was like "Donations for what?" and she said, "To pay for the funeral, the cemetery plot, etc." I had to call my parents to ask questions. [/quote] So you were not exposed to people with little to no money until you were in your mid 20s? [/quote]
