For me it is 5 but when my parents die it will be 3. I think at least one of those will predecease me.
I can see why people want to have children to avoid this weird feeling (but I also think they might be naive about how troubled their kids will be).
I know you'll say who cares you'll be dead but it's weird, no? The superficiality of connections in life.

Ofc it might just be me - most of my friends care deeply about various things and people.

Enjoying this life affirming summery morning then?
I went for a walk by the river first thing and saw a kingfisher. The. A convoy of cool old steam vehicles cane past.

Circular innit
The number of people (who’ll care) is largely based on your own efforts in later life, no?
Older peps are sadly unreliable in this way

No, it isn't. People only tend to care about what they care about. Sure you can make things worse for yourself by being terrible company but plenty of people who are terrible company still have lots of social support.

Depends on whether it’s May 2024 34 or 44.

I'd say my family (hopefully at that point many grandkids)
My friends
The rof community
All those I have positively influenced in their careers and businesses
I only care about the top 2 but the second 2 probably equal a thousand people

couldn’t say I give that much of a shit provided there are a few people who love me still around

My friends more than my family. I'm not particularly close to any of my nephews and nieces or cousins. Of my 7 siblings, I think perhaps 2 of them will give a shyte.
I have some really close friends though and they often drop everything to see me whenever I visit Limerick so I'd imagine they'd make the same effort to make sure I get a good send off.

One thing and one thing only will matter to me when I die: whether Clergs weeps for me.

A lot more than I thought but that's probably to do with the fact that I almost carked it pre 50. I think if I'd actually stayed dead some people would have thought "meh, why bother". I dunno.

For starters I've got four little cousins who are likely to be benefit so guess they might pay attention.
