Dying in style

We all want to live comfortably, if not with an affluent lifestyle. But not all of us think about how to exit this life in style. Just today, I learned how that requires quite a lot of money!
A family estate at Loyola Memorial Plans, for example, now costs at least P5 million complete with an air conditioned family mausoleum. Five years ago, the same lot cost P3 million, quite a big jump in price. I think it was business columnist, author and public speaker Francis Kong who said one of his favorite investments is funeral lots! You know what they say about obstetricians and gynecologists – they are never out of business.
At The Heritage Park in Fort Bonifacio, a family estate costs P3.4 million – and that’s the cash price. The same lot goes up to P3.7 million if you pay in installment.
