I wanted to poll you all and see what Insurance agents thought the cost of an avg funeral today would be.
I'm talking about every cent it would cost to stick someone in the ground. I mean everything!
I found this from the Wall Street Journal in 1996. This was the avg cost of a funeral in 1996.
COST OF FUNERAL
$1,025 Professional Service Charge
$343 Embalming
$129 Other Prep (Cosmetology)
$292 Viewing
$125 Transfer to Funeral Home
$155 Hearse
$76 Service Car
$25 Acknowledgement Cards
$2,146 Casket
$497 Burial Vault
$689 Single Cemetry Plot
$462 Grave Digging and Refilling
$5,964 was the total for the funeral home. This does not include things like the flowers and other things. Just the Funeral Home bill.
Maybe someone of you just had to pay the bill of a funeral
What do you tell your clients it would cost to pay for everything to stick their loved ones in the ground?
