millions of $'s worth of gold found in deceased man's home

[nk1nk]

Not sure if you guys heard about this but i thought it was pretty crazy. Can you imagine wheel barrows full of gold. I really wish this guy was related to me.

Yeah...kind of sad actually. Poor old guy living all alone and apparently based on the ammo and conspiracy books was a bit paranoid...

 

On the other hand perhaps he wasn't paranoid at all....the IRS is filling their pockets before any heirs get to touch it.... The poor guy is probably rolling in his grave.

It doesn't sound like he enjoyed too much of it but, at least, it must have given him some security knowing it was there........along with the guns.

I would have LOVED to watch that episode of Hoarders!

It's a shame he died alone and his body not discovered for a month

after he passed away. Not having any daily contact with someone is

not a good idea.

 

The first cousin in California must be shocked right about now.

I imagine that the IRS share has to be inheritance taxes. Which is pretty high for anything above about $3 million or so. The cousin is going to be pretty happy though.....shocked...but happy.

Sad story from many angles. Hopefully the cousin takes the time to research the gold pieces. Instead of walking into a gold buying popup and asking what their worth.

If I were the relative or lawyer trying to help the family I would work through a good tax lawyer like Dan Pilla, Jr (taxhelponline) and a good coin dealer like Northern Nevada coin (Allen Rowe). As Pilla is fond of saying "there is no such thing as a hopeless tax problem". http://taxhelponline.com/

thats an interesting story for sure

Yes, I previously read that article. I feel sorry for the man as he was probably very lonely and paranoid at the same time. I'm very happy for the relation who will be getting all of the gold. Gee I bet she was totally shocked into a faint!
