So the wife and I are taking the Dave Ramsey Financial Peace University. We only have our student loans left for our debt (and a house, but a mortgage doesn’t count.)
We’ll pay off our student loans, then save 3-6 months of expenses, then adopt.

No, I’m not dying. (At least not more than anyone else.)
I’d just like to know that if/when I die, I’ll be able to give a final gift or message in the way my funeral is celebrated.
