One of my Uncles owned a 1962(?) Rambler American until his death in 1991. The guy retired after 20 years as a SeaBee, then went to work for USS as a maintenance supervisor and retired from there in 1979. Lived in the house he inherited from his parents, so he'd never made a mortgage payment. He also never married or had any children.

When he died, his sister hired a guy to search his home and yard for money. They found almost $300,000 buried in the yard, stashed behind baseboards, in the walls and sealed in plastic, in the toilet tanks. He had a bank account with $50 in it.

For a long time, his siblings thought maybe he was gay......

After his death, the man across the street admitted he knew my uncle and his wife had been having an affair----for over thirty years.
