Very funny - I think pre-order forms should have a contingent beneficiary clause like life insurance! I have often wondered if I would live long enough to seem some items actually make it to the consumer.
Jim;
As someone who spent 34 years working for one of the largest U.S. Life Insurance companies and spent quite a few years doing Beneficiary and Ownership work as well as Death Claims, I have to tell you that your suggestion wouldn’t crack the top 10 most bizarre bene arrangements or Death Claims I handled!!!
One caveat... such a bene designation would require a legal opinion on whether or not your LHS has an insurable interest in you (in other words, are you worth more to them dead or alive)
