Reserving a place for your plaque in a temple

[Vextan]

A friend of mine just paid almost Sing $15k to reserve a few places in a temple altar for his and family members' plaque to be put side by side, upon death. He is of above middle income earner and is in his mid forties. And this price is for the back rows hor, if front rows cost lagi more.

 

Will you do the same also, i.e. to ensure that you will stay with your loves one eternally, till death they dont part ? Pls share , thanks. And May you have a long life.

wah...alive also must fight to dead end to get into good school and Uni...

 

for death also must do advance booking for plaques...

 

born free...pay and taxed to death...........kekeke

born is not free..need pay money also.

 

BTW, if we book a niche in advance, what if the columbarium closes down?

 

How do private columbarium survive on a one-time payment?

Seriously, nothing to do wif $$...older generation jus believed in buying earlier...my grandma bought afew...cos my 2 uncles passed away young...then 10yrs bk my grandpa passed away too...

 

Now my dearest grandma is going to be 100yo soon le...she jus wan to be wif my grandpa n her sons....hmmmm, so loving, IMO.

I bought one for my mum as she indicated she wanted to be placed together with my dad's (who had already passed away) next time.

 

I may be getting one for myself and my wife too, in the same premise. Its not to 'stay eternally together' but rather to make things easier for the next generation to visit - all at one place.

i see, so that is another reason for reserving the location of the plaques to be together. it is nice and so filial of you to do that for your mum.

Got alot of money...anything also can!....during mortal life and after-life!

 

Just make sure, one don't go borrowing money.....asking for donation...or lending money ( create problems too, you know!) during the mortal life phase!
