101 Projects: Worth my Weight in Gold

Before I am dead, but def while I am towards the end of dying, place me on a large and sensitive scale and record my weight. As soon as a die, weigh me again. Wait a few more minutes and weight again. Weigh me one final time before my body is removed. Take the initial weight and subtract the “dead weight” (or average “dead weight”) from the alive weight. This amount is equivalent to the weight of my life. Next, get a jeweler to fashion a small 24k gold cube of the same weight. Calculate the cost of the gold required to make the cube: Display the gold cube, weight, and price of the karats: this will demonstrate the worth of my weight in gold.

Surly, my life has some value. . .
