Sadly (IMO) this just provides justification for off'ing oneself which is the last thing we need more of. Pretty irresponsible "legacy" to leave. Given how tough some kids and people have it these days, letting them know putting a bullet through your head is okay because "heck, you're doing to die anyway and at least now it's done under your own control".
Should have just disappeared.

I disagree. This man had nobody left. He had two siblings that pretty much ignored him, and everyone else that meant anything to him was dead. I have thought about it in the past, and if I am still alone when my parents die, I will do the same thing he did. To be honest, the only reason I haven't already is because I don't want my parents to lose any more children, I have lived through the pain of losing someone to suicide and it sucks.
The only relationships I seem to have in my life anymore are professional ones, and the only reason anyone gives a flying anything about me is because I make them fist fulls of money. I don't really care if their feelings would be hurt for a day or two if I was gone. So I can get where this guy was coming from. Nobody wants to live in a world where they are alone, and un wanted by anyone. That is not necessarily depression. It is simply a cold hard look at reality. On a positive note, someone will get an awesome promotion out of the deal.
