What would happen to your family, coworkers and friends if you died suddenly?

This definitely isn't something very happy to think.
I'm pretty much sure my credit card companies would feel quite pissed off for all unpaid bills.

But we did lost a famous member in anandtech forum a while ago. She and her daughter were crushed by a vehicle unexpectedly.

They're more likely than not to die eventually anyway, and death is part of life, so it would be very tragic but I'd get over it at some point I would hope.

Uhh, I thought that was a hoax?

Family? A bit sad I guess cause they'd have no one to fix everything around the house.
Coworkers? I'll take that as fellow students. Most wouldn't care.
Friends? I'll take that as friend. Probably a bit sad.

I think the cops would be very suspicious of you. You would probably end up in the slammer.

When in the slammer, I'd go crazy.

EDIT: woops, I thought they all died I was still alive. Sorry, I'll learn some English one day. :confused: :eek:

Parents = devestated. I'm an only child, Mom nearly died having me.

Co-Workers = Screwed.

Friends = Sad

I hate to even think of what would happen. I'm a single parent to an only child and I take care of my parents because my brothers aren't interested and don't live close to them. Since I got divorced, I've had to make more of a plan about what will happen in the event of my death, but it's nearly impossible to talk to any of my family about it because they think I'm being morbid (an odd thing, but ever since I was very young, I had a feeling that I was going to die relatively young, or at least have an unnatural death before I was 50).

Anyway, I imagine my family would be shocked and devastated, my co-workers would probably be sad for a while and my friends would probably be shocked and sad too. At least I hope my death would be sad for someone.

They, and all you on AT would cease to exist. For you all are just figments(or thigments...WTH is that word?) of my imagination. So the next time someone chooses to flame me, they should think twice, 'cause I might not! :D

That's weird -- I have had similar feelings since I was very young. I always had the feeling I was going to die before I hit 30. But I'm 37 now so now I'm thinking maybe I miscalculated and that 40 would be the cutoff for me.

My parents would put an ad in the paper to rent my room and sell my stuff, of course after they pop open a bottle of champagne to celebrate. My fellow students would probably be really happy that the curve in their class just got easier. My &quot;friends&quot; wouldn't even notice.
