Cemetery plots on sale in Tokyo

Apparently dying is just as expensive (if not more) as it is living in Tokyo.

Tokyo is notorious as the world's most costly city, and through-the-roof real estate prices also register at cemeteries. Smaller plots at Aoyama start at $30,000, with a 40-square-foot lot going for $86,000. "This is a rather reasonable price," city government official Chieko Sugisaki said. "This is a very famous cemetery so we expect a large number of people to apply."

They're taking applications by mail July 2nd thru July 14th for the 50 newly opened spots... And I thought real estate in New York was outrageous.
