    My father was an academic and had a huge library . When he died I was tasked to take care of his books . I went through them all and kept the ones I wanted but didn't have room for all of them . However when I was sorting through them and opening each book I accumulated 20K in cash all hidden in books .....true story .

      My kids were cleaning their dad’s nasty house while he was sick and I’m the hospital- they’re adults. They found 36 unsecured guns of every kind you can imagine, ammo everywhere, 24k in a pillow case under the pillow he sleeps on, and a huge box of sex toys and a ton of, shall we say, niche porn - nothing illegal. The guns went to a gun storage facility, the cash went into a tax account, and the toys went in the trash because their condition was... shall we say, unsanitary.
      They really regret not hiring a cleaner. 😆

      Hans & Zenovia also probably dont charge him much. He helped Hans get a whole house, so I think Hans would go to the ends of the earth to help him for almost nothing & probably also score some things they can use out of the hoard. Plus, they can be going thru the clothes looking for other items mixed in with them, and not bog down the clothes guy with that, as Im sure his time is valuable.

      I lost my husband 02/24/2020 so I know exactly how you feel. 💔After his death he kept me busy going through all his closets, drawers, garage and Mancave trying to unite cords with electronics and their manuals.....every item he owned seemed to have spread to different floors of the house like a giant jigsaw 🧩 puzzle! I didn’t find any wigs but I did find two brand new pairs of slippers still in their boxes under a workbench in the garage and enough computer external hard drives and other paraphernalia to start a business. Many times I asked him to make a list of all his computer passwords because he had a big computer I never used and all our past taxes resided in it. Well, his death was unexpected, I had no passwords BUT my son who works in IT flew in from Germany and spent a solid week in that computer changing each and every password and downloading 3,000 unopened emails. 😳 These videos Alex puts out give me laughs when I need them. Lots of funny friends, too.

    There have already been comments made, but a word about the fabrics and yarns. This collection would NOT have been cheap materials. Most likely they are one fiber material, a rare thing these days. Wool, linen, cotton come to mind. These materials today will fetch as much as $65 USD PER YARD, so it might be worthwhile to keep them for auction. I'm seeing several thousand dollars of good suiting and dress weight materials. Even if they are dirty, experienced needle crafters know how to clean them. The yarns are probably nice natural fibers too, so check. Given the pile under the stairs, they are "dye lot matched" which is supremely important for yarn crafters on natural fibers. Once again, excellent items for auction.

    @ya-ya5387 2 года назад

    It appears that the former owner was seriously artistically creative. I've seen in this house a musician, artist, fashion designer, needlework, other crafts and a traveler. Perhaps a serial hobbyist. It seems that creative and multi-creative people tend to have difficulty disposing of things. There's always another use for something, or once a project is completed, there's a passion to go right to the next one without clearing out items from the last one because the last one has become non-existant.
    I'm an studio artist who has a passion for absolutely everything creative and it's a struggle to let go of stuff that might have a future use. I sometimes forget about it altogether. I haven't gotten to the hoarder stage yet, just a controlled borderline one. It seems that as soon as I clear out a space, it immediately fills up again. A never ending cycle and I love it! ❤

    23:10 Man... watching this is making me feel rather ancient. Where you guys see treasure, I see old stuff from my youth. I guess that's how I looked at my Grandmother's stuff. Anyway, the "Pollock" bottle was a do it yourself art project that most everyone did in the 70s. It was simply melting crayons over a bottle. Josh would appreciate that kind of thing.

    Aw! That's so nice that Josh got the Archie fabric! Very nice of the owners! Either upholstery or pjs!

      Much like the potter house the views from this series will help him on his investment. If the potter house hadn't paid so well I doubt that he would duplicate the effort and take the time to post. Everything adds up.
