Embarrassed

Disposingof sex toys (and all the other embarrassing items hidden around the house) issomething boomers should be concerned about. After all, the children are the most likely to be clearing out the houseafter you’re gone.

Considerdesignating an Eradicator to come and remove your stash after you’vepassed.  Or if you’re going into thehospital, think about giving those romantic mementos from a past relationship to afriend for safe-keeping.  Whether it’s cleaning out your attic, sock drawer, or browser history, do some sex toy estate planning so your embarrassment doesn’tfollow you into the afterlife.
