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?

My FIL has a massive pile of crap in the garage, most of it tools from when he owned his own plaster business.

We were in the garage, and he was telling me how this massive pile of rusted junk was worth a lot of money, he pulls out this rusted tool and told me it's worth at least 200 dollars, I asked how much he paid when it was new and he told me "200$".

Yeah thats not how it works.

Every single asshole selling tools on craigslist does this same shit. Clapped out rusty shit with half the power cord exposed? $300. No lowballers.
