All of a sudden, I like surprises.

Well, we already know how Cosmo will die—-from eating Roz’s cooking!

i have no credit cards. And I would leave my money in my checking and savings accounts to pay for my cremation.

I’ve already done that.

I’d love to pass in my sleep after a rousing good time playing “Find Your Or Gas Um”.

I just want to know where. Then I won’t go there.

I had a college professor who used to say “if you knew where you were going to die, you wouldn’t go there”

That’s an interesting question, Cosmo? To know how one is to die so they can avoid it, or when so they can prepare for the hereafter. As I already have the hereafter taken care of, I’ll take the when so I can have the time to give everything away.

Until debt do you part.

I knew a guy who knew the exact time and place of his death. A judge told him.

Leaving your past extravagances for your next of kin to deal with.. might.. affect the type of funeral they give you.

If she’s married, she might’ve just discovered both how and when.

The banks have a clause that you can’t die until you pay them off or leave them a life insurance policy to cover your debts…

I read some advice from an advisor once who said that the last check you write should bounce.

If you knew how, perhaps it would be easier to avoid or forestall.

“I’m not afraid of death; I just don’t want to be there when it happens.” ― Woody Allen.

This time Cosmo gets the ‘tip’.

You can’t take it with you, but someone else still might get it.
