People who buy mausoleums/ have mausoleums built. How does that go about happening? Do you purchase one and oversee its completion before you die? I imagine you have to buy it close enough to when you're going to die for it to make you not a psycho.What if you die before its done? I guess there's nothing you can do.
Let me tell you, regardless of when they died in relation to the construction those mausoleums are really something. I respect the statement they make to the living: I have more money dead than you have alive. Whatever, if you don't have kids I guess you've gotta rock your wealth somehow. Also the mausoleums are bigger than some of my friends' houses. I guess even if you do have kids maybe you want to keep them under your roof after they have departed this world too. A sort of reverting back to old ways.
Or maybe the mausoleum is a way to sticking it to all the other dead guys in front of all the living guys. Is it maybe then a way of showing your with the in crowd. Its like the satisfaction of a good one liner even if you can't see the reaction but you know it was good. The dead guys know their mausoleum is better than any single stone in the plot next to them so they don't need to read this article about how impressed I am. They knew I was going to be impressed and were satisfied with that a hundred plus years ago when they died.
