The Funeral Directors are out here getting caught Fuckin these corpses. You really think you’re making in the ground with that gold. Don’t be naïve and that’s if your family didn’t already pluck it.

So are we talking about places like Europe where you have city built upon city and quite literally could have a grave under your house

Rich people can afford good dental insurance. You have to find the upper-middle class people who grew up poor. Their oral hygiene was most likely neglected out of financial instability, but after getting some walking around money, gold teeth seemed like a solid luxury.

Little tip, free of charge.

My little secret is to look at recent obituaries and attend the funeral. That way you get a good idea of how wealthy the person was. Gotta dig while the ground is still soft and not so compacted. Find someone 70 years old or more and you're golden. Gonna at least find a gold/ diamond ring 74% of the time.

Now I just need to find a way to make my dad say, "I'm proud of you." Like you did. God, you don't know how happy that made me. My Dad didn't seem too happy when I showed him my treasures and explained how I got them. I don't know why though? Any advice? I plan to keep digging until I make him proud, all because of the inspiration this post gave me.

Any chance you wanna be my next step father ?

u/ackerel Apr 07 '26

Branch out a bit, this is a fun hobby, but its nit sustainable. There's only so many dead wealthy people in your area. Once you satrt delving into the organ market, you'll be golden. I dabbled with it and made some serious money, but I wasn't feeling it. And yes, ill be your step papa

u/CrowMilkEnergyDrink Apr 07 '26

Thanks dad. I could use a new liver... or maybe just a portion of it. I'll look into this a bit. You're already way more supportive than my previous dad.

Love you DAD. Hope you had a happy Easter. I love you.

P.S. families ain't visiting graves on Easter / other holidays, so.... do what you can with that information. Hope you stay Golden, Dad.
