So much for 'dead men tell no tales'. Personally I don't see the point of this sort of thing. Why hurt people after you're gone? Do it when you're still alive and can share the burden of the truth.
- anoncareer0212 6y agoIf my brother tried to sleep with my wife and I couldn't forgive him, there's no reason to worry myself with telling him that when I'm alive. Not everything is worth talking about or forgivable, in my experience, people universally avoid tough conversations
- ArkVark 6y agoThe bigger questions is why waste $7,000 on this when that sum could have gone to your heirs?
- mbreese 6y agoIt’s their $7000, they can do what they want with it. If they want to leave it to their heirs, no one is stopping them. But for some people, that is a reasonable sum to know that your “final message” will be delivered at the appropriate time.

I'd fork over a hundred bucks to have someone "confess" at my funeral about some really outlandish swashbuckling lifestyle just for laughs. I'd only go to $7000 for a special sort of loose end that would be far too painful to waste my numbered days on, but would make me feel much better knowing someone's got it handled. He also lines up an alternate funeral director to have a backup site, and I imagine that's not free.

- postalrat 6y agoThat's a pretty greedy thing to say.
- awb 6y agoThe author provides a counter point: > My client was knocking on death's door and he was not going to have the strength to say or do these things himself, but he really felt empowered through knowing I would be able to do what I did.
- mastazi 6y agoSome of those stories are not at all about hurting people feelings. For example the story of the woman who left messages to her husband was heartwarming.
