[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents and older relatives have some sick joke that if we’re inheriting all their money we have to deal with cleaning and selling. It is what it is. I think by 85, people should have their homes parsed down and cleared out. Like spare room closets empty, attic empty, basement empty[/quote] Agreed. Dealing with my parents house after my mom died was horrible. As an immigrant who grew up with nothing, she had a collection of plastic takeout containers hoarded away, suitcases of undergarments bought in her home country, just random collections of stuff as well as old broken furniture she would never give away. I vowed not to do that to my kids. We have aquired quite a lot, but live in a small house with limited storage, so I purge often. A nice side benefit is my kids are now into thrifting for clothes.[/quote]
