An elderly husband and wife have announced their plans to die in the world's first 'couple' euthanasia - despite neither of them being terminally ill. Instead the pair fear loneliness if the other one dies first from natural causes.

Well,at least wait until the first one dies (of natural causes) and then the survivor can weigh his/her options.
If my Dad had killed himself 10 years before he actually died (of natural causes) he would have left me and my siblings a fair chunk of $$$.But his last years were difficult ones and cost a lot of money.As a result he left very little behind.All four of us are glad to have had those extra 10 years regardless of what they might have "cost" us.
I'd bet that *their* kids would rather have the $$$.
I smell Teenage Greed!!
I don’t care. At all.
In fact, I’m annoyed they announced it.
As far as attention whores go I still think the cartwheeling on a beach bikini girl wins.
Keep that frame of mind and you’ll be fine....meanwhile enjoy “the wife of your youth!”...and she thee....
Totally uncalled for.
If they want to die, that’s their business.
It's understandable to me too. I have the same fears as this couple.
God help us all.

Good for you. She is a fortunate woman.

Very much so! seemingly Exacerbated by the greed of others.
If one of them should die, who would remain would be so sad and totally dependent on us, he said. It would be impossible for us to come here every day, take care of our father or our mother.
Wow. How caustic. If I had children like that, I’d want to die too.
There is someone here on this forum who PMmed me something not so dissimilar.
