When you die, other people get your stuff. So, I think you should use that stuff ... now. :-)

- jay-anderson 10y agoVery good point. I think my grandma did a good job of giving things away before she died. I showed interest in some music books I found on her shelves and she gave them to me right away (I wasn't asking for them). At least giving things away before you die you can see others use and enjoy them. Especially when you think you're not going to get the chance to use it again.
- praptak 10y agoMy friend had a really cool grandma, she used to slip him pocket money accompanied by sayings like "Shrouds have no pockets". That used to upset his parents, adding to the coolness.
- donretag 10y agoBut sometimes, that do not realize what your stuff is. When I pass, will someone recognize that my VU/Warhol Banana poster is actually autographed by Lou Reed? Will they identify the Scotty Moore and Johnny Ramone autographs? The uniqueness of some of my guitars and my vinyl collection? Some things have value only to myself, others if they know what the item really is. The best is to simply value memories and not possessions. But at least those guitars get played and the vinyl is appreciated right now.
