I don't know about you guys, but I often get worried over the fact that my family might face several costs that could be the result of my death, I did state in my note that I want my body donated to science but what scares me is the medical costs that can arise from the result of me dying or the amount of money that comes just from attempting to CTB. In the short term it will have negative effects but at least in the long term, my family doesn't have to pay for my college tuition. Do you guys often get these worries and how do you overcome them?

I don't give one f***. Suffering for the rest of my life isn't worth any amount of money someone saves.

Here the government covers the funeral costs.
But even if it didn't, I wouldn't care. I mean am I supposed to suffer another 5-6-7 decades or whatever because of a few hundred dollars that my family would have to pay for my cremation? please...

The whole funeral business is a scam anyway - all the coffins, flowers, make up, clothes, speeches... pure vanity and denial of death.

I try to think about the money I will be saving them in the long term.

Exactly. Their emotions blind them to logic so of course they probably won't see that your suffering is a long-term cost.

I worry a lot. I want to be cremated because it's cheaper and because burials are awful imo but it's still expensive. If they want to hold a funeral it'll be expensive too. So much money wasted. I wish I could just vanish.

Honestly who cares? After the fact it will not matter anyway... nothing will

This is why its so important to do the right thing with your children and for people to treat eachother right because if they don't its going to be so costly on everyone when depression takes its final course on someone . But remember it's not your fault and at this point your peace is more important than how much it will cost to bury you.

obviously, it's up to you, however I am sure they would be happier spending more money on your college tuition than a few thousand bucks for your funeral.
