Pre-paid Funeral Guaranteed Against Inflation
The full or partial amount of a funeral can be pre-paid at today's prices. The money is invested and gains interest over time, . At the time of the funeral, the money in a pre-paid account is applied to the current cost of services and supplies to what was pre-paid. Any excess money is returned to the person's estate, but if there is a short fall, the funeral home absorbs the cost; thus guaranteeing no future costs with what has been pre-paid
