People are quite obsessed with having a good funeral, and with good I mean it should look good. Doesn’t it make more sense to spend your money while you are still alive and kicking? Who cares whether you get buried in a beautiful, polished Mahogany or Oak coffin? Go green, I say – get buried in a cardboard box. This way your friends can all write messages on your coffin – how cool would that be? If the thought of a cardboard box is just too much for your faint heart, at least go with pine. It’s cheaper and have less impact on the world you are leaving behind.
