New One Today

[SALTedOut]

Like many of us I get invites to "free" dinner's all the time from investment/advisor companies. I've never gone but I know its discussed here on occasion.

Well today I open one of those envelopes and its not from an investment company... its from a funeral company for final arrangement planning. Never seen this before.

I'd rather go to the funeral one than an investment advisor one.

I'm dying to get one of those invites.

Sounds like a grave situation. At least the invite was not cryptic. Enjoy the meal, but be wary of the "death by chocolate" dessert...

I've got one of those from a funeral home some years back. I didn't go but I suppose there is something there that could be informative and useful.

Mortifying!

Some great and funny comments above. Here was my first thought that I avoided putting into my original post.

I guess they figured they should take me to dinner before trying to get me to go to "bed" with them.

over my dead body!

This would be tempting, as my spouse and I both feel strongly about preferring direct cremation and a remembrance at the home of the surviving family. (Although we have had funeral home services for out of state family after direct cremation.)

At least you got the invite before the event happened!
