Im worth more dead than alive

[BoRED S2upid]

How depressing is that?.

Ever given it any thought?. If I pop my clogs tomorrow my loved ones would be rolling in it.

[off_again]

I am now worth something not far off half a million quid dead. Shame I don't earn that alive.

Depressing isnt it.

Actually its dropped since the house value has dipped.

ditto.

House paid for....nice tidy lump sum....widows pension.....

I'm gonna check under her pillow to see if she has the insurance papers ready.....

Unless you are really not a very pleasant person (as you have 'loved ones' then I guess you can't be all bad), then I think their immaterial losses would be greater than their material gains

True, also if you owned a few more limited companies, you could be a pro-wrestler!

Thought of it, it's my masterplan for the Crunch, after winning the lottery that is.

What are you waiting for? Should we send W4nted around with full audited accounts and a letter from his company secretary?

[patmahe]

I'd say thats the case with most people(certainly is with me). But your family would prefer you alive and thats what counts, money really isn't everything.

You obviously have a lot of faith in people.

That's endearing, but ultimately foolish.

Believe me its not. I know SO many people who don't have life insurance, dont have pensions, dont have critical illness cover etc... A lot of people in low paid jobs won't have pensions, people without houses are unlikely to have protection or insurance cover to pay the house off if they die.

Yes they might be rolling in it but they will also know that it's blood money. You can't spend money that results from the loss of loved ones in the same way you'd spend money you earnt.

Yep, I've thought of it. My OH is also worth quite a bit. I wonder which of us will get the other one first.....

Might I suggest a spot of canoeing followed by a visit to Panama?

Half a million dead? Jesus, you must direct quite a few companies!

Typical life insurance on mortgage plus pension payouts on death, plus widows pension both from a job and government...

£250k+ easily in a lot of cases I would have thought...

THat's obviously assuming taking life cover/having a job and a paid pension etc....

Would rather have my other half though....money isn't everything but it ruddy helps!!

Yes my OH is insured for millions....as on on paper we are worth a fair bit but cash poor at the moment, those tablets im feeding him arent working. I might have better luck with a hitman
