I wonder if I am able to spend all my money before I die.
(TO tiffnkeat: Maybe I can spend your money and have mine donate to charities- LOL)
What hinders US from spending the last penny before we die?
What will you do with the "extras" in life?
Are you saving it for your children sake?
Hope to get your opinions.
Thanks

If you are wondering whether you are able to spend all you money before you die, that means you are having lots of money stashed somewhere. LOL! Probably will be used for medical fees when we are old, haha! Insurance covers you until a certain age, so it's best to keep some for such emergency use. Maybe if there are any left, it will definitely go to my children.

Yes, insurance will help the immediate family but you may need to use it for your medical bill if you exceed the age limit to be covered by medical insurance. If you're lucky you may just die in your sleep and that sure saves medical costs.
Start planning to have kids, you don't want to grow old without them. They may be a headache when they grow up but it is nice to be surrounded by your own children when you are old.
If no children, maybe your nieces or nephews may need the money for education. So, I suggest you provide for your own family first before giving it to charity. Sometimes you just can't trust the people working in the charity organization provided they really make good use of the money rather than keeping it for their own use. You know what I mean!
P/s I thought you are pregnant, aren't you?

I have learned to live with a balance in life spend today for what I need, save tomorrow for what I may want and certain assure the children are taken care of.
I will live life until I die but in the process remember that there is a tomorrow that I must prepare for.

If I were to die right now, I would have no problem spending all of my money because I do not have any! I really hope that I can reach my goal of changning this situation before I die. I want nothing more than to be able to leave plenty behind to take care of my family.
I am not one that has or wants a lot of extras in my life, I only want my family to be financially stable so we do not have to worry about how to pay the next bill or buy the next meal. MY goal os to have at least one very lucrative business and several sources of income so that my children will not have to struggle as much as I have always done. I am on my way to reaching my goals, but right now, it is a very slow moving process.

Well ,I don't get married and have no baby. But I am very sure that I won't spend all of my money if there's no need. I don't wonder wheather I am able to spend all my money before I die, but I will arange it carefully.

All are planned, for the kid/s of course. But if i die and see my kid/s having thier own comfortable lives i may share it to those you needed the most.

Well I am going to plan on living until the time that I really die. Therefore, I am going to really keep saving some form of money. Right now, no children, but who knows where that might be in the next ten years. Therefore, if that fact does change, the fact is that I am saving money is good. If not, well I'm still going to be alive for the foreseeable future.
So yeah in the end, I'm not going to spend all of my money before I die. That is just not something that I am going to plan on doing. Given the fact that I am planning to live a long and productive life, it is really just counterproductive to really spend all of my money to begin with. Plus, there is really no telling when I might leave this world to begin with.
