I contacted a vintage guitar center in Philadelphia and a guitar outlet not far from me about them appraising and possibly buying my grandfather's guitar. It is a bit sad the thought of selling it, since it's the only thing I have from him, but I just don't have much of major value to sell. I don't play guitar, and have no wish to.

Most everything of value that we could sell (besides our cars and house, which are both hubby's and mine) belongs to my husband. Yes, hubby always says it's "ours", but I still feel that stuff is his. I feel guilty that he might need to sell more belongings than me to create a nest egg for the future. I do feel guilty that we are in the position we are in because of my disability. Yes, I know it's not my fault. Hubby would never blame me, but...I still feel guilty.

A while back, I sold some gold rings to a jewelry shop. I didn't get that much. Not even enough for a big grocery shopping trip. I even asked for an appraisal for my mother's engagement ring that my dad gave me. They offered so little that I couldn't sell it...as a matter of principle.

I don't have major nostalgia and attachment for/to stuff. Far less than my husband has for some of his stuff, but I understand how/why he has it. That's why I wish I had more valuable stuff of my own to sell, so he wouldn't have to sell any of his.
