    I wonder how many times that happened and the house got demolished or burned down and no one ever knew.
    This lady showed me a picture of her husband holding a stack of small bills that was like 2 feet high. She said it was mostly 1s 2s 5s and silver certs.

    If i died today someone is going to find a 200lb shiner box stuffed full of coins. Havent counted recently, but it was more than $3k a few years ago. I dont know what it weighs, it doesnt slide on carpet anymore. That didnt count the 1.5 51oz folgers cans of pennies, or the jar of old coins.

    Anything is possible but I doubt there is much money to be found amongst that garbage.....real trash of a renter lived there, then some number of squatters (AKA "drug addicts").

    Frankly, I am not looking forward to this job but the client is a friend and he isn't going to be able to afford anyone else. Like everything else we take on, "we'll just have to come through."

    Just came in from doing an oil change and filter, installing a Valvomax oil drain plug, and removing the air filter. Seller gave me a new one, I'll try it on tomorrow. I have the air filter housing out, soaking it in detergent water. Those little squares were just full of a small type of sandy grit! I also wiped down the engine bay some and filled up the windshield washer tank.

    Sometimes the cool part about hardcore druggies is they forget where they put things. Often. Like little hidden surprises, easter eggs, where you'd never expect them.

    Sometimes that's a consequence vs. a benefit, like when those surprises end up being used needles, razor blades, broken glass, and other things that can seriously screw your life up.

    Be safe.
