Her grandfather knows she loves jewelry. 

They basically range from jewelry to industrial uses. 

Doesn't get more influential than saying you're in the jewelry business, sounds better than saying you're a wholesaler in RE I'd say.  

Found some gold jewelry in one - got over $100 from cash-for-gold dealer.The refrigerator is best just removed without even opening the doors, due to the science experiments contained therein.Funniest one is the one where they were reading a book called "A Day Late and a Dollar Short" - considering that their mortgage was WAAAAYYYY more than a day late, and WAAAAYYYY more than a dollar short :) ....
