Those things. Check stubs, canceled checks, utility bills etc. I have some a least twenty years old.
I think sometime in the future our grand children will enjoy exploring those used to bees.

... checking account stuff going back to 1973 when I got my first account.
Without looking, I remember my mortgage payment on my first house I bought in 1978 (and sold in 1979) was $275. That won't even pay half my real estate taxes now :(
