If I die now? Debt.

I'm aiming for zero.  :D

So far my list is:

X tonnes of C02

X tonnes of hot air.  :)

No descendants.  At this stage suddenly deciding to want children would be an epic vanity project.

Broadly neutral impact on society, law abiding, but not exactly a great contributor to civic life / society.

Hopefully not much. I'd hate to start over from scratch.

To elaborate, by the time I die I plan to turn as much of my non-transferrable assets (money, health, looks, youth) into the transferrable ones (experiences), preferably at a favourable exchange rate.

A lot of junk. I pity the fool who has to clean up after me. 3-400 LPs. 3-400 CDs.3-400 Books.
Concert T shirts from the 80s.
DVDs. Video Cassettes. Audio Cassettes.
3 or 4 old PCs.

An overweight corpse.

Some stuff that my cousins, my probable heirs, will bin as worthless.

Probably (since I've never checked) a line on my school's boards that record what universities its' pupils attended after sitting A-Levels.

Not a lot, eh? :hmm:

The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar
