OH MY GOSH!!!! I can't IMAGINE $8000 for a little Box like that!!!! And that's NOT INCLUDING the Casket, the Funeral, Flowers, etc.... No wonder 'Cremation' is becoming sooooo POPULAR!!!! CRAZY!!!!
Unfortunately Krystina that’s not true, there are some cemeteries that the owners die themselves and leave no money for care of everyone’s loved ones entered there! That’s why I’m going with cremation! 🔥 🔥 🔥
@@bobbiesox6289 I understand what your saying. Unfortunately, here in Mobile, Al, they just sent a funeral home owner/director to life in priso for taking customers money and having the open casket wakes, but the bodies were never buried in the paid plots and he cremated and trashed the remains!! He kept reselling the plots and making people believe their loved ones were taken care of. Talk about a shit show when the families found out. Me and my husband both want to be cremated. We don’t want our son to worry about the financial aspect after we are gone.
@@jimb5113 Your probably right the way our justice system works these days. For those families I don’t see how any type of sentence is justice enough for their pain.
My Dad’s side of the family are all interred in a column in a mausoleum. My children were young when they passed. My children called the mausoleum, “The Parking Garage”.
I can’t believe they are still building mausoleums considering seeing some of the ones after a few decades falling down and in disrepair after not being kept up people have become so greedy from the cradle to the grave I sure hope this one doesn’t end up like that.
The only thing perpetual about death is death itself. We have paved parking lots on cemeteries all over America. The living forget the dead until it is their turn to die
@@marks.c4753 Because even though perpetual care is paid for, that doesn't stop the caretakers from abandoning their responsibilities at some time in the future. Then Lamont shows up, and does a vlog about it falling apart.
@@angelwingstn3392 ...... After death, what difference does it make? You will be as safe in a wall as in a hole in the ground. Nothing is forever. Nothing.
Only place to be buried in a mausoleum is Forest Lawn in Glendale, California.. They have a rock solid fund for upkeep..However, no one can imagine what will happen in the years to come let alone thousands of years.
Neat! Thanks, Lamont! Always wanted to see a mausoleum under construction. Lamont touched on a very good point. If you can arrange for the funeral before passing away you'll get a better deal. Funeral homes really make the big money from those "at-need", when someone has just passed away and they need to be taken care of.
That is really cool. Never seen a mausoleum in progress.. Funeral homes make money hand over fist. It is the worst time in your life and then they start gouging you for money.
My Mom was so upset she couldn’t plan my Gmas funeral. She had me do it instead. Mind you this was almost 20 years ago and I didn’t do anything fancy. It was $15,000😱oh....my Mom had already purchased the plot.
Yeah I been through that when my dad died. The funeral home I was in they were ALL about the money. I had very little finances and was offered a little wooden box or a wooden coffin. I didn’t want to cremate him. The thought of cremating him made me feel even worse, but I had no choice but to cremate and had to put my dads ashes in a little wooden box. I felt horrible about that. I started to save my money so I could buy a decent urn for him. He was a Vietnam vet too btw😢
@@haumea420 so sorry for your traumatic experience, I didn't want my sons or daughters to go through this, so I took out funeral insurance a few years ago. Hope you're feeling a little better now. Xx
That was interesting. I live in Ontario. There was a mausoleum built not far from my city. It was constructed in the 1920’s and never used. I’ve been told it was too expensive for most folks around here. It was torn down several years ago. No one was ever entombed there
That's very interesting. You would think they would lower their prices to make their investment back, or at least break even. Maybe it was a money laundering scheme.
This is definitely a first for me the cost is unbelievable as my family cemetery is free the only costs we have is the casket so thanks Lamont another interesting subject
Hi Lamont, burying someone is an experience racket, your right, they still want money out of you when your dead, (crazy), that’s a lot of money for a box hole. Very interesting place. Thank you. Xxxx
I must say for all the UA-cam channels that covered Graves of people and everything else there is nobody who shows a lover respect as Lamount at Large. His deep respect for those that have passed and his deep respect for what he does on his channel is unparallel to any other channel I would say and he has a Charisma about him that keeps you in fraud with the story behind the people with Pat and it's good to see somebody just trying to show you how people lived when they were alive and now that they're gone to see how they were laid to rest Truly UA-cam channel and a unique person
Very cool. I've never seen anything like that. I'm letting the State take care of what's left of me. Doesn't cost me a dime. Over $7000.00 for a box? What little I have, I'll spend while I can enjoy it.
Reminds me of the almost full Manila North Green Park Masoluem. Maintained by the City of Manila Government. Those were 3 storeys high with each storey having 5 levels. Each plot cost PHP40000 about $800. Plots could be either for one coffin or for 4 for those storing bones or urns.
Hey Lamont. Great channel. I’m a viewer from Toronto 🇨🇦. I worked on a few mausoleums In the past. Im a Ironworker(rodbuster) and we install the rebar before the concrete. I would love crawling into one the crypts at lunch for a nap and freaking out my coworker who was spooked out the whole time we were on site. Lol
That is a massive complex for sure. Why not just be cremated instead. You figure the average person will be forgotten in three generations. I have a niche for my ashes next to my loved one. When I made arrangements seven years ago I was told there would be no other new niches built, only private mausoleums in that particular cemetery. It seems money is the name of the game. The way I see it it's too expensive to live and too expensive to die.
I did a very extensive genealogy history on my family and know more than my parents. We had 8 kids in the family and no one else had any interest in it. In the old days people visited cemeteries every Sunday after church, another lost tradition...
They'll make back their money and then some. I've worked in funeral business that had a huge attached mausoleum to main building with extra land held as reserve for future additions. The family that owned it bought all the marble over in Italy themselves hand picked plus a full warehouse of marble for additional building . Etc... Most of the interments are set up in trust accts so it continues to pay for itself, unless you have a crooked person operating the business, then they abandoned the property and disappear. Prices vary depending on location of business.
The cost is insane. I'm assuming the owners going to help families to reach loved ones on the top row to put flowers in the holders. Thanks for this video I've never seen a masoleum built
Angel for animals, you seem to be like myself, not money or materialistic inclined. I.ve always been of the same opinion, enjoy the money you,ve earned before you pass away. You sound like a compassionate, caring person judging by your comment.
Hi! My husband was a project manager for a construction company that built mausoleums. I got to take some business trips with him to see some being built, it was really interesting. He loved his job there, unfortunately the company had to downsize. Thanks for the vlog. I've never seen anyone ever vlog this. Take care! Looking forward to the next one!❤
My husband and I went out last year and purchased mausoleum property, it is called a heart to heart. 2 people in one mausoleum whoever dies first goes in feet first, the other goes in head first...heart to heart. They are stacked 7 high, we are in the middle, no one can reach without a ladder. We got ours here in North Carolina for $9200.00, our marker in on it just waiting for us. Cemetery property is the only thing that has no taxes.
Watched them build the National Cemetery of the Alleghenies. They stripped the soil dawn about 10 feet, installed all the grave vaults and stone position markers. Then back filled. It's why a military burial is so quick. The ground has already been preparer. And at those costs it makes me happy to be a Veteran. Only cost is my cremation.
The only problem I have with a mausoleum is that once they sell out they just abandon them or sell them off to some loser that is going to abandon them and just walk away without taking care of them. If you are in the ground either in ashes or not you still just stay in the ground unless a city buys it and wants to make housing or something stupid you're just rotting away inside the ground but mausoleums can get pretty bad. You know what I mean you have shown us some pretty bad ones.
We,ve never had these built anywhere in the uk. In some cemeteries you,all see a crypt from the victorian era and a wall of remembrance of people who were cremated then mostly graves.
My dads best friend is in one in Columbia Maryland. He is in the second row from the ground. It was $25k. But, his also is deep enough to hold 2 people/caskets. Eventually his mom will be interred in there with him (he wasn’t married). His sister and her husband bought the one right next to his. I always knew they were expensive. But I never imagined how much they really are.
I’ve seen one get built in East Hanover Cemetery called Gate of Heaven or Heavenly Rest Cemetery just off Route 10 West in Northern NJ. Lamont. That’s another place you should visit and then in the 1980s or 1990s in the Town of Dover where one was built at Locust Hill Cemetery.
It is expensive, and they do make money on them. However, I look at it like this. Once those are filled, that is dead property (non pun intended), it will never make another dime again. Unlike if you built a business there that can continually make money. Incidentally, this is why cremation is becoming so popular these days, more than 50% of people opt for cremation these days and that percentage continues to climb.
@@carayj The cremation rate in the United States has been increasing steadily with the national average rate rising from 3.56% in 1960 to 53.1% in 2018 and projections from the Cremation Association of North America forecasting a rate of 59.4% in 2023.
You obviously havent been to New Orleans graveyards? Graves in New Orleans get reused. I guess they take remains of long forgotten and cremate them then reuse the grave. My grandmother was buried in one. Carrolton Cemetery #1 in New Orleans.
They have been working on expanding the mausoleum in the cemetery in the next town over from me, which is a very affluential area. They are making bank off it!
That's some casket condo! Very impressive! Thanks for posting! Really enjoying your grave yard adventures! I always enjoy walking in old grave yards... such history and interesting things to see!
Wow, incredible. My mom and dads funerals were over $15,000 each, pre arranged. Whey were doing to do this but the cost was way too much. This is why I am going to be cremated.
Very interesting!!! I had my late husband cremated for $800! That is what he wanted. No way I'm falling for the funeral scams!!!!!! NEVER would I do a "PREPAID" burial either!!!! Pat
True. You really don't see mausoleums be built nowadays. Fascinating find there Lamont.
Wow, yes money money. I had no idea they cost that much. Looks like they have alot of land as well. Thanks for showing us. 👍😊
OH MY GOSH!!!! I can't IMAGINE $8000 for a little Box like that!!!! And that's NOT INCLUDING the Casket, the Funeral, Flowers, etc.... No wonder 'Cremation' is becoming sooooo POPULAR!!!! CRAZY!!!!
Should of checked out the draining system.
Something that will never go out of business is funeral homes and cemeteries.

That sure is a big building. 🙏🏻
My parents bought a place in a mausoleum which was eye level in 1972 for $2,800. I can only imagine what they are going for now.
That was about how much a new car costs back in those days. It almost seems like the cost of cars and crypts are commensurate.
It's close to 5 thousand dollars
I think I'll be cremated and spend that $8000+ towards a terrific vacation while I'm still healthy to enjoy it. 😉
I agree 😊🏝

I wonder what the engineered life is for that thin concrete is?
On my mail delivery route (yes, I'm a letter carrier), I got to watch one be built, it was pretty cool.
I walk the perimeter of Pacific View Cemetery in Corona Del Mar CA every week. They're building a new mausoleum there now.
That low price is probably top row out side imagine what eye level inside will cost
