Another thing that you might want to think about is getting your funeral 
paid for now. It doesn't matter if you are 19 or 79. You can plan out the 
whole darned thing. I think most places will let you update your plan as the 
years go by. And there is at least one which is a franchise with places 
across the country! Billions and billions buried. (Any more room on the 
Rock?)
