    Yep. The only way for your children to inherit is if you don’t grow old. The expensive death care facilities will take every cent you have and leave them with nothing.

      I’ve actually had this talk with her. (Clarification: she’s an adult). After arguing my position on the matter, she had no issue with any of it.

      Also clarification: my comments about self managed exit aren’t related to some depression I wanna go today type thing. It’s an entirely pragmatic plan of attack for future use.

        The plan is logical and pragmatic. In the US, people often spend more on healthcare for the last few weeks of life than they did up to that point. Healthcare is absurdly expensive here, and end-of-life medical heroics don’t make any sense.

        The tricky part will be the timing. It’s not always easy to predict when we are close to being incapacitated.

        I didn’t think you were depressed. I also happen to believe that people have a right to self delete, so I was not judging you.
