Pianos are a dead weight in today’s world with kids

hard to find a kid to take piano lessons

I bought my wife a really good piano in 1974 for like $6000 and last year I tried to sell it and finally offered to give it away to a family wanting to give their child piano lessons

my wife and I had also inherited like 6 old pianos and we could not even give them away or donate them to anyone

pianos are just out out style
