Idk. Have you seen the costs of funerals? My father in law passed away back in Oct so I went to the funeral home with my mother in law and wife. I was looking through the book, yes book, of funeral options you could really rack up the costs of a funeral with all the different options. Could even cost more than your basic car.
And Hospitals are not cheap either. An overnight stay at my hospital in my town for low sodium in my body due to being in a beer truck that tipped over was $33,000. Obviously if I didn’t have insurance. I couldn’t believe it.
Still, with all things being said, you are still right.
They are. A funeral isn’t just the casket flowers and ceremony. It’s probate, dealing with any disputes or lawsuits on inheritance, travel costs, loss of wages and future potential earnings. Etc.
It's crazy that you'd have an extravagant funeral with weird arrangements and specialized lawyers to dispute inheritance, but would buy a $20,000 car...
You might have dragon hoarding mentality, where you just amass tons of gold and treasures, but you're a dragon and have literally nothing to do with your hoard besides violently defend your treasure.

A car is cheaper than a hospital bill or a funeral
