If you were given several hundred thousand dollars to trick out your coffin, what would you do with it?

Question

Mine would be shaped like a pickle and levitate randomly across the earth, playing show tunes and the occasional rag time ditty.....

Answer 1

It would be like the show "Pimp My Ride." I would have flat screens installed all around my head. I would make the coffin out clear glass (unbreakable, bulletproof) with adiamond encrusted top. The diamonds on the top would be in the silhouette of an angel, so when viewed above it would look like I had shiny wings. The interior would lined in white silk with gold stitching. I would be wearing a white Versace suit with a top hat and cane inside with my. I would also have a small minibar installed as footrest in case I get thirsty in the afterlife.

Answer 2

Very simple.........he gets enjoyment from taking something that has been discarded, neglected or abused and bring it back to life. It is a great task to take an object from nothing to "something" with ones bare hands. It is a great feeling of accomplishment. These old vehicles you mention: the first Ford Mustang (1964 1/2 coupe), the Shelby Mustang (not sure what actual model you were thing; Shelby GT350 or GT500 or GT500KR?) and some old Ferrari or Alpha. These cars you mention are not just some "old cars" There are machines of style and beauty, except for maybe the Alpha. Once these machines are restored, done properly they will not just "rot" in the garage. No true man and car guy can have too many cars or vehicles. Just like women can not have too many shoes!

Answer 3

I'm not going to be buried so I have no need for a coffin. I am an organ donor . Because of my disabilities, my body may be of use to medical students to try and find ways to help other people whose spine has been playing painful tricks on them. When they're done with it, maybe they'll scatter my ashes on the bank of a good fishing hole. I would enjoy some of that money now though.

Answer 4

Since I don't believe in burial, land is becoming to sacred and I've always found it Eire to go to a grave site and talk to someone who's soul is long gone and you're just talking to a coffin of old bones.
I'd donate the money to charity.
But please make sure I get an invite to yours. I love pickles, levitation and show tunes!!!! It would be one I definitely PAY to see. You could charge admission and make a fortune to leave to whoever!!!

Answer 5

With that much $$$ I could hire several full-time professional mourners to weep and wail at my tomb for several years. (Said tomb will be air conditioned and have red velvet carpeting, concert seating, and a viewing window for paying sight-seers. The open casket of course will be gold with pearl inlays and I will be surrounded by gems.) By the time the $ runs out they'd be such well practiced wailers that they'd develop a hit CD and perpetuate their career until they are replaced by a new generation of wailers, and so on it goes for all time.

Answer 6

I wouldn't want an elaborate casket. If I knew I was dying I would rather gather my loved ones and closet friends and have a get- together and tell them how special they had been in my life and hear from them how I had touched their lives for the better. Those are the things that matter to me the most.

Answer 7

If I had to use it for my coffin I would get the best most obnoxious sound system ever that would play an incredibly loud loop of all my favourite songs.
Plus I would make sure many of them were as blasphemous as possible. Just for the HE LL of it...

Answer 8

A diamond-encrusted pillow, several air-fresheners, a TV to watch the cricket and an issue of Penthouse.

I'd also get a chrome knuckleduster in case I rose from the dead and came to punch your *** for asking such a dumb question.

Answer 9

Trade in the coffin for an urn, and donate all the money to Habitat for Humanity.

Answer 10

Mine would make King Tut look like a pauper !.
You'd need some serious sunglasses to approach that one
when displayed in the spotlights.
