Listen "How to Plan Your Final Wishes"
Episode Synopsis
My latest episode will focus on a “sensitive topic” and this may be one of the toughest to talk about. Death. What do you want done with your body when you’re gone. It’s not as simple as you might think and if you don’t plan you may be leaving a significant financial burden for your loved ones. There are lots of options – more than you may realize. How do you want to go out? I’ve got folks don’t want a funeral or want a big party, or nothing at all, and some are donating their entire body to science, others opt for the traditional burial or cremation. It's an important topic – and there is really no escaping it, right? Unless we have some divine intervention. Even God tells us to be prepared – that’s what we are going to try to do to be better prepared about the options available for the “final disposition of your body” and why you should plan for this. But also I’ll discuss what can happen if you don’t. I’ll even cover some of the more bizarre options people have prepared for their final farewell.So... how do you want to go? Do you want to become cremated? Do you want to be composted? Do you want to be shot into space or the sea? Do you want a Viking burial on an open pyre? Well if you do, its going to require some planning and a financial investment. Before we get into the options. I thought it might be interesting to take a look at a couple of send-offs that some other folks have opted for. They really range from the basic to the ultra extreme and they are all true in Episode 70 of Boomer Time.🔑 For help, visit https://www.NancyCogar.com🎙️ Listen to the Boomer Time with Nancy Cogar podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, iHeartRadio and on YouTube🎙Listen to Boomer Time with Nancy Cogar on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0fxgUg1FwgfazDEDWnqnoS🎙Listen to Boomer Time with Nancy Cogar on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/boomer-time-with-nancy-cogar/id1725555845🎙Listen to Boomer Time with Nancy Cogar on iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-boomer-time-with-nancy-cog-272050488/✨Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nancy.cogarDisclaimer: The information provided on this website and on the podcast is not intended to be considered as legal advice or constitute an attorney/client relationship as provided under the Tennessee Rules of Professional Conduct.
