I want to commission a life-size statue of myself

I don't want to be forgotten. The internet won't go on indefinitely so I want a piece of rock depicting myself laying around for hundreds of thousands of years. Then when future archaeologists discover my statue I'll be famous.

    Hang on for a few years, and you'll be able to buy a 3D printer that you can use to produce perfect life-size statues of yourself in plastic. That'll allow you to go for quantity, and you can bury a whole truckload of the statues in various places around the country.

    The plastic is also likely to remain completely undamaged for a lot longer than any mere stone.

    you need a lot of money to hire someone to make a statue of that size and durability as well as having your image copied perfectly.

    none of that comes cheap also many things can happen as time passes on what if it gets destroyed the list is long on how that can happen.

    also to note being forgotten happens to everyone rich or poor so it doesn't really matter.

    one last thing what if your statue dose survive and the people who find it assume the worst and think you were a dictator or something?

      "And here, children, we have the weathered remains of a statue dating back approximately 3,210 years. Nothing is known of the man depicted, since the name on the plinth appears in no surviving official or personal records.

      "Historians speculate that his acts might have been so heinous that it was decided to obliterate all references to him, but the superstitious fear his visage created prevented the statue from being destroyed.

      "We know something similar happened at least twice in ancient Egypt when later pharaohs attempted to remove all references to the Pharaoh Akhenaten and the female Pharaoh Hatshepsut. Historians find it intriguing that this happened again in the period during which we believe the man depicted here lived, since there is an inexplicable gap in the list of presidents of the ancient United States of America covering the period 2017 to 2024.

      "It is possible that the statue is an image of the mysterious missing president. Perhaps he mandated that life-size statues of him should appear in every public building and space, and this is simply the sole example we have so far found in our excavations.

      "It is one of the minor mysteries of the Ages."

    Why settle for statues? Do it the way our great dictators did. Commit a genocide or something. You'll be immortal and ur legacy will never be forgotten.

    What if like two days after you die your statue tumbles to the ground, and shatters?

    P.S. I was pooping when I wrote that.

    You're welcome!

    What's so great about you, that you need a statue of yourself? Usually statues are to remember and celebrate important people that have done important things. If you want to clutter the environment with a statue of yourself, just because you don't want to be forgotten, that's stupid.

    And even if you have enough money to make a statue of yourself and someone finds it in 500 years, it will (again) be useless. If there is any information written on the statue about you, they'll run the info through a database and when they find out you were nobody, the statue will be scrapped. If there is no writing, there'll be some investigating and then again the scientists will come to the conclusion, that your statue is useless.
