What happens to debt after you die? (USA Article)
Death is probably the last thing on your mind right now, but you should know that someone will probably be on the hook for the tab when you finally punch out. TotalBankruptcy created a cool infographic to explain what can happen to debt after you die. Single-signers on things like cars usually get off scott-free, but co-signers beware: student loans and mortgages could put your loved ones in over their heads.

Your last update could be anything from a heartfelt expression of gratitude to the people who have been part of your life to the revelation of a deeply held secret. You could also choose to share a life lesson that you want others to take to heart while they still have time or perhaps a cryptic message is more your style. Some may even give a final flip off to a cold, cruel world. You can make it memorable and unique or you can make it simple and sincere – what matters is that you make sure that your last words are heard by the people who matter to you.

In this rare free consultation he gives the ins and outs of compiling a will. How do you protect against greedy relatives and former spouses getting their hands on your money?

10 Signs that death is near
No one can predict the moment of death. But physicians and nurses involved in end-of-life care know that certain symptoms are usually associated with the body's shutting down. These signs of approaching death are specific to the natural dying process (apart from the effects of particular illnesses the person may have). Not all dying symptoms show up in every person, but most people experience some combination of the following in the final days or hours:
Organ & Tissue Donations

Donate Life - You can make a difference!
Have you thought about eye and tissue donation? Eye and tissue donation can usually occur up to 24 hours after death, depending on which tissues are being donated. This means that you may be able to donate tissue even if you are not able to donate organs. For more information on the different types of donation visit http://www.donatelife.gov.au/discover/about-donation
Donate Life - You can make a difference! - Supporters Kit
There are many ways that you can join in DonateLife Week 2012 to help get Australia talking! We need more Australians to know the donation wishes of family members because in Australia family consent is always sought before donation can proceed. The DonateLife Week 2012 online campaign kit provides a range of resources that you can use to promote the week and its key messages – in your workplace, in your local media, on your Facebook and Twitter and in your community.
Organ Donation New Zealand - Offering the gift of Life
Over 1 million people have indicated their wish to donate organs on their driver licence. Only a small number of people, however, will die in circumstances that makes it possible for organs to be donated for transplantation. People who die at the scene of an accident or die from heart attacks, for example, cannot donate organs for transplantation. This is because once the heart stops and there is a period of time when the organs have no blood and oxygen supply, the organs will not be suitable for donation.
Organ Donation United Kingdom - If you believe in organ donation, prove it!
Would you take an organ if you needed one? Nearly everyone would. But only 29% of us have joined the Organ Donor Register. More than 10,000 people in the UK currently need a transplant. Of these, 1000 each year – that's three a day - will die waiting as there are not enough organs available. Please help us to turn people’s good intentions about organ donation into action by registering on the NHS Organ Donor Register.
Organ Donation United States of America - Donate the gift of Life
Why donate? Because you may save up to 8 lives through organ donation and enhance many others through tissue donation. Last year alone, organ donors made more than 28,000 transplants possible. Another one million people received cornea and other tissue transplants that helped them recover from trauma, bone damage, spinal injuries, burns, hearing impairment and vision loss. Unfortunately, thousands die every year waiting for a donor organ that never comes. You have the power to change that.
