  Speaker 2: not so good for us because for those of us
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: who were like put sentimental value, we should get rid

  Speaker 2: of it sooner rather than later. Forty five percent of

  Speaker 1: That's with us, and let's go.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: Even higher, yeah, ninety nine percent. So yeah, we're actually

  Speaker 2: we're finding that kids are annoyed by having to clean
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: out a relative's house or their parents' house.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: One thing I will say, My dad is ninety five,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: and about two years ago we downsized him from his
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: town home to an independent living place. And you're right,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: there are a lot of things we did not want. Yeah,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: but he also gave me like something I had to
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: take care of for him. That's worth a lot. He
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: has like three hundred autographed baseballs WHOA over the years, Yes,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: and they're in a case. And he gave those to
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: me early, and I have them in our home and
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: I have a blanket over them. I'm I'm not even
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: showcasing them. Yeah, yeah, I really have no room to
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: showcase them.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I want to keep them away from the sun, right
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: and make sure they're taking care of for years to come,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: so they could be very valuable, valuable things. I'll take
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: care of them all you want, right, But yeah, some
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: things you don't want.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because people are saying, like some of the weird
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: stuff they've inherited. Somebody inherited a Belle of Cottons signed
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: by John Wayne.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Well, why that sounds actually that could be worth something.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: It sounds like it could. I mean, yeah, if you
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: find John Wayne collectors, right, you got to find the
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: right collectors. A pure gold butter knife Roman artifacts from
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: three hundred a d okay, somebody was collecting A jacket

  Speaker 1: it out there. Four four to three sixty three. Give
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: us a text if you've inherited anything from your parents
• 3:22

• 3:25
  Speaker 1: you're maybe laughing at inside, but you're holding onto it.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: The weirdest thing. Four four three sixty three. We did
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: already get one text from nine to seven three. I
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: gave my forty year old son my mom's silver plate
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: flatwear and he got rid of it.
