This gentleman must have had some great stories to tell. I have never even known someone who knew someone who's flown on a Concord. Very cool. The Grumpy Old Men reservation gives me hope that he had lots of good friends around until the end. :)

There's something so sad about seeing what someone left behind when they passed away alone - I really appreciate the kindness you show to his memory! Establishing a bit about his taste and sense of humour, who he was as a person, not just a source of things to be sold.

Thanks for saving the plants, and showing them that you care. They hear, see and feel your love. Again thanks!

My daughter waited tables for many years, and went to funerals when a good friend and customer passed. She invited a 97 year old gentleman to her wedding. He was wonderful. This man might not have had close blood relatives but I know his family included those who served him.

I am glad that you and Melissa and Jason are finding some things in that condo that you can use for yourselves. More and more I see Jason as an apprentice in the cleanout/resell business as he seems to enjoy helping out on many of the recent projects. It is amazing how many things of value you have found in that relatively small condo.

The boys learning the family business. Nice to see.

I love the way you are so respectful as you go through it all. And very thoughtful as well. This man obviously enjoyed his life and it makes it all worth it.

This man's collectibles and style reminds me so much of my uncle, even down to the sacks of coins, who passed away a decade ago. He never married, even though he dated often when he was younger. I asked him once why he never married (15 year olds are so blunt!) and he said it was because there was so much to see and do that he knew he would never be satisfied with living a "normal" life and he didn't want to subject a woman to his selfish ways. As his only nieces and nephews we were very close to him and he was fun. He never regretted his choices and lived an amazing life. May this man rest in peace, knowing that he had many great experiences and that his collections are giving so much joy to so many others.

Best part, finding a money bag full of cash, plus the coin sets. I'm with Melissa, as I would take the ducks home too. They are so fun-looking!

This home owner seems to have been a real fun guy, I love all his stuff ❤❤ keep up the good work Alex

Each time I go to an estate sale I think about who the person (s) were that lived there. Where they collected all the wonderful pieces and different clothes. If I was younger than 64 I would love to do entire home purchases like you’re doing. It really fills my nostalgic side and the love of discovering. In the meantime I’m having fun filling my ebay store with some unique and very sellable items.

You say you're still sweltering in the heat , the thermostat cannot be that difficult to locate ; you could even ask the manager . That seems a pretty important detail to take care of .

Concorde never really recovered from the Paris crash tragedy in 2000. An Aunt and Uncle of mine flew to Iceland from England on a special trip and my brother and I paid for my Dad and Step-Mother to fly to Paris for their Silver Wedding Anniversary. They all said it was a great experience and all on board were allowed to visit the cockpit one by one too. Although I do remember my Uncle being a bit put out when he was only allowed one bread roll with his meal!

Alex this is a great series. Thank you so much for letting us tag along. Thank you for what you do. Just being a heck of a nice guy!

Hi Alex and Family! You are so busy, it’s sometimes difficult to keep track of the sequence of videos for each project. The lawyer’s condo is interesting because I haven’t seen you guys do a condo yet. The vehicles were great. He loved the Miata, you can tell. I think that the items we choose to collect are very telling about the way we view our lives. Kudos for sending the winter clothes to those in need. I was worried about my book collection for a long time, but I am going through it now and I will donate many to libraries and a local thrift store ran by a mentally handicapped organization. They train and help the disabled learn to live and work independently. I’m inspired by your work and your generosity to others. God bless you. ❤Brenda

This is turning into a very interesting clean out. Can't wait until the next video

This is a house full of treasures! All of that money and the very nice things you can auction off and use for yourself. I am quite sure you will get a profit on this condo. It is sad the reason for this clean out, but we all meet our maker one day.

Only you. Once again stumbling across a stash of cash. Cool beans!!!😊

Sounds like the condo owner was a fascinating, interesting person. Someone you'd love to meet and just sit and listen to stories. Hope they had tons of friends they shared their adventures with. So many pass alone after a life of adventures.

Alex, thank you so much for being a real human being and raising good kids with Melissa. I am also a Ukrainian refugee. Not in Canada and not in the dire situation but shattered and lost. I know what it is like to leave behind your entire life, your beloved house, city, friends, packing just one medium-sized suitcase, grabbing the hand of my 3y.o.toddler and spending 9 days on the move before getting semi-settled in a place where at least rf bombs will not kill us in our beds... Horrendous. But Ukrainians are strong. We will not give up. Please vocalize my HUGE thank you for all the support Canada and Canadians give us Ukrainians. Big hug!

Awesome find with all those coins. As a novice coin collector I would be in my glory to come across something like that. So happy to hear Melissa is finding things for the house and just because they are cute items also.

I love watching cleaning out. Great find today.

Great job Alex! I am so happy when you find stuff to recover your money and make some more 🎉🎉❤

Alex the silver thing in the bin of coins is an antique wine taster used by sommeliers and has retail value hope you still have it.

That’s a ton of coins! It’s definitely worth sorting all the loose change for silver and rare varieties.

This clear out looks like someone who was active and not home a lot because of work or just enjoying life then got sick sometime around Christmas or just after for a month or a little more at most. Kind of sad because this is what most of us might leave behind to clear out. They seems so much like someone a person would like to know and enjoy their company.

I worked for a University in Bristol England for a while and got to do a few engineering events in the aviation museum there - They have a concorde and regularily have showings of the nose moving up and down
