By 21, he was a self-made millionaire—all from garage sales, storage auctions, and resale finds. He’s spent the past 40 years uncovering hidden gems, dodging scams, and teaching everyday people how to cash in on forgotten treasures.
Aaron’s going to reveal the biggest mistakes people make when selling their stuff, the top five things in your home right now that could be worth serious money, and how to master the art of negotiation—whether in person or online. We’ll even get into the wild world of storage unit auctions—do they live up to the TV hype?
