Or so you "believe" ;-)

You are, ofcourse ,"presuming" that you're not self-deluded .
To each their own.

We are what we believe and....
we all ultimately find out exactly what's what in the end. ;-)

Guess then you'd feel your plum outta luck if you can't afford to clone yourself. Otherwise all you came from, all you were , and all you became just ceases to exist as if you'd never existed at all save what ever artifacts you left behind.
It's a little like the thrill you "don't" get if someone , while you're alive , would perform ,for example , a song you wrote somewhere in the world and you're not there to even be aware of it.

Do you really belive that your individualized energy pattern disintegrates upon death. Well if you "beleive" this hard enough the strength of your belief just might make it so.
Nothing like geting what you wish for ;-)
