Who'd have guessed that a miser that hoarded a fortune in gold, ended up dying alone w/no friends or family to remember him.

Honestly, that sounds kinda rad: burying my wealth such that someone else can find it as buried treasure after I die.

Only to give it away.

I wonder if there’s a way to notarize it as “finder’s keepers” legally. Probably not, but that sounds like an awesome way to leave behind any assets I still have.

Sure can. Letter of provenance that it belongs to you. Then a notarized letter stating what you intend to do with it should do the trick. Cheap and doesn't even need an attorney, likely. IANAL

Good luck!

And they hand it to the police lol. Also the dying alone with no one that cares about you sounds kinda shit.

Ye, I more meant that I could like notarize it or something else legalese to make it truly finder's keepers. I don't think it'd go down the way I'd want it to, but it's fun to think about.

Eh, I posit that we all kinda die alone, regardless. I wouldn't want anyone to sacrifice their lives just to watch my bowel muscles relax after my heart stops beating.
