Do you have a bucket list? Things you want to do before you pass on? Many people put exotic trips on their list, like a visit to Hawaii, or impossible feats, like skydiving. While there’s no time like the present to live life to its fullest extent, you might want to add some practical things to that list as well—and take care of them as soon as possible. Planning your funeral in advance with Shakopee, MN funeral homes will give you peace of mind that things are in order for whenever you pass one, which hopefully will be well into the future. Here are just three of the reasons why it’s never too early to preplan your own services.
Reason 1: Lock In Lower Rates
There’s no magic number or age that states you should plan your funeral. And you don’t have to wait until you contract an illness to do so, either. The sooner you plan it, the less it will cost you. It’s as simple as that. Prices continue to rise, actually doubling every decade or so. Preplanning your funeral services today guarantees you today’s rates. People are living longer today so if you plan your funeral in your 30s and live to your 90s, you’re saving yourself and your family tens of thousands of dollars.
Reason 2: Family Protection
While you are alive, all you want to do is keep your family safe and happy. When you are gone, it’s harder to do that, but preplanning your funeral can help in a number of ways. First, you don’t have to hit them with a funeral bill on top of the grief they are already experiencing. Second, they know just what you want and will have an easier time carrying it out without arguments. Third, they don’t have the planning burden on their shoulders in addition to everything else. Protecting your family is easy when you plan ahead.
Reason 3: Peace Of Mind
Perhaps you don’t know exactly what you want for your funeral, but you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that you want to be cremated. You can plan as much or as little of the funeral as you want. You can always add details later, but putting into place what you do know you want gives you peace of mind that your family will do as you ask.
