When we had to deal with my parents' stuff, I was shocked at how much some items sold for that I thought were virtually useless. And other stuff that seemed like it had some value to me went unclaimed. Guess that shows what I know.

My wife is WAY too frugal to just throw my stuff away. She wants me to make a list and possible value. That changes too often to rely on. I told her to sell it for whatever someone will pay and use the money for her quilting "hobby". She'll probably live for 20 years past me...

Every time I see a portable dumpster backed into a driveway, I am broken-hearted at wondering what is being lost to the world . . . .

Stuff like that makes me realize just how much of a consumer culture we live in. Throw-away culture too. My dad rubbed off on me in that I am always trying to fix things that break or wear out even when it probably just makes sense to buy a new one because I don't want to be "wasteful". My sister is just the opposite - I used to go over to her place and pick through all the perfectly good "stuff" that she was tossing just because it had something wrong with it that it easily fixable.
