Bad, bad idea Earl. 1,000’s of (live) people wind up on the Social Security’s “dead list” (through no fault of their own) every year. When that happens, people have no credit, no SS number, often no house, money and nearly no hope. It’s a huge mess to fix.
@puddymom—-What you are saying is true. I remember reading a few years ago about a man who did that on purpose. He told bill collectors he was dead, & it started a chain reaction by way of computer records, that basically left him with no identity or credit.
Down in my little patch of paradise, where life and health insurance is cheap and the salespersons non-intrusive, it is called Seguros de Vida y Salud. Seguro sound a lot more positive than Insurance, somehow.
as opposed to the hassles of making these people believe someone’s dead. we were hassled by one of my grandmother’s favorite charities on the day of her funeral. of course, she would have adored that

No insurance, he bought. Why bother when he’d never see a nickel of it?

This may be the first time since 1956 that anyone has actually used the word “lain” outside of an English class.

Tell the insurance company you’re on Social Security, they usually hang up immediately.

Flo’s trying to cut off her relationship with Jake fro State Farm or trying to start one up. You decide. Khakis might turn her on.

It’s out of character for Earl to use the correct word, “lain.”
