The problem is not you not caring about your own funeral.

The problem is can you throw your daddy and mummy into sea, river, space, etc.

When it comes to your turn, the headache is on your kids not you. The money comes from your kids not from you.

Why not ?

I've already discussed my funeral arrangements with my kids and reminded them to claim death benefits from epf too.

Technically yes

But 3 day wake costs, elaborate ceremonies including prayers during wake, good feng shui place for columbarium add all up and you get an unnecessary bomb.

It will be difficult when the time comes. Guilt, sadness whatever.

Maybe an easy way of thinking will be this: if it were your father/mother, will you be willing to? even if they told you to go ahead.

Probably the only way to force it will be to put it into your will lol, throw me into the sea or else you get nothing lol.

Seriously, you need to think of death as a natural event and not something to avoid.

My dad talked to me before he died and I threw his ashes into South China Sea. Told my kids just offer my body as a cadaver after any organs can be donated. Then dispose anywhere, eg plant fertilizer.

Must live life to the fullest and spend time with loved ones. After death, the body is no longer important.

Mostly no. Only those who believe in that sort of stuff actually benefit the departed

lol, post got reported

if you can't even stomach something from random nobodies in an internet forum, how do you expect to be able to handle the criticism from "well meaning friends and family"?

Why would anyone report an interesting discussion.
Your viewpoints are valid
