Pre-Planning vs. Pre-Payment in Funeral Plans

Has it occurred to you to pre-plan your funeral? Pre-planning a funeral with a funeral home can help you and your family feel more secure about the future. You’ll be able to put your wishes for your funeral service in writing. In addition, pre-planning can help protect your family from future financial distress.

However, pre-planning for a funeral does not require you to pre-pay. On the contrary, you can simply use your pre-plan as a written record of your wishes, and your family can pay for these outlined services when you pass. Your other option is to pre-fund your plan. This will protect you and your family from future inflation. Your funds will go into a trust account or be placed with an insurance company at a guaranteed price that you agree to pay. No one will ever have to pay more for the services that you’ve requested.
