We were in the antiques business for a short time in the mid-80s to mid-90's and saw lots of this, the old folks had no idea what people would pay for their old furniture, they barely survived sitting in the middle of lots of money. Probably didn't care either. A good friend (at the time... long story) had an aunt like that, had two houses full of really nice antiques yet she thought she was so poor she would steal the silver wear from the area restaraunts. They sold a huge cache of it at her sale. Another friend who had big family gathering bought most of it. The sale total from just the contents was near mid six figures. There were two farm properties with houses and out buildings too. All the machinery had been sold years before so nothing there to be had.
Sounds too like some old farts and their antique tractors that they won't sell, live like animals with a small fortune in machinery just rusting away.
