    You spend half your life acquiring stuff and the other half getting rid of it. I've picked up things that I liked over the years. Now I would rather have financial security over stuff.
    The trick is to identify what I have, so I can get fair market value. Currently I'm trying to identify a roll top desk with no mfg. markings on it. It's been in my family since 1960 and was bought used. I will be posting some pictures.

    Hi Frank. I'm still in the acquiring phase. My kids can worry about the getting rid of stuff phase when I kick the bucket!

    If you start a thread in the Furniture forum with the roll top pics, you'll get a better set of eyes on it.
