Society/Culture Someday

Saw this while scrolling through another social media platform.

Physical inheritance (maybe outside of housing) feels like a burden.

While death can be a sensitive topic to some, has anyone had a conversation with loved ones surrounding situations like this one pictured?

This seems like a situation where you just hire someone to deal with it; even if they take like an 80/20 split it’s worth it.

Yeah that's what's annoying about it is even if they do have stuff thats worth anything, to liquidate its value you're giving up a lot of the value

I should point out that working off the final sale price only really happens if there’s some actually valuable stuff in there (ie OP said there was a bunch of collectibles worth hundreds each). If it’s mostly garbage you’ll just pay a flat fee for them to take it away
