ng perfectly clear. You know the type who’s always saying, “When I’m dead, save your money, spend it on something really useful and do me cheaply”? I’m not one of them. Never was. I’ve always thought that funerals were useful. So do what suits you. It’s yours to do. You’re entitled to wholesale on most of it.
说到钱，一分钱一分货，最好和本性信得过的人打交道。如果有人说你太抠门儿，叫他滚一边去。如果谁说你花钱太浪费，同样叫他滚，滚得远远的。那是你的钱，花多花少是你的事。但有一件事我要先说清楚：你知道有那么一种人，他们总是振振有辞：“等我死了，丧事从俭，留着钱干更有用的事。”我和他们不一样，历来如此。我一向认为葬礼有意义。所以，你觉得怎么合适，就怎么做。这是你的事。多半事情统统是你自己拿主意。
