    Bit late to the party now though. Repellent sorts of businesses. The stock market is all about animal spirits and life affirmation - the future is endless.

    Anyway, 62% over-priced if you believe Skaffold, only worth 4.14 on FY13 forecasts

    Business description:

    My research on the cemetary real estate issues indicates a grave undersupply, and that the market has gone underground.

    Tried to apply for a crematorium license, but at the moment thats all up in the air.

    I would offer a ocean scattering option as well, but thats all at sea too.

    Actually had this discussion the other night chatting to a few stackers over a meal. In my mind 3 businesses are currently top of mind, funerals, aged care and child care.
