No it’s not new, since generation professional mourners are paid to attend funerals and they really make good money. This makes people feel that the one who just died was an influential and a really prominent person to others. In countries like India and Africa this profession is really common, and to the surprise it is also mentioned in the holy bible. In UK there’s this company named ‘Rent a Mourner’ which actually supplies professional ladies in black to attend funerals, there’s a professional training for the same or people even start this business locally. All you have to do is look sad and cry a bit over the lost soul and this will get you cash earned.
