Yes, I'm sure that's how it works. But, they are pretty dumb not to ask
for a child that remembers where he hid buried treasure.

lack of imagination probably! Or maybe for the second child!

There was a famous case study of a little girl named Shanti Devi, who had past life remembrances compelling enough to make her run away from home as a six year old to reach her home in the previous lifetime.

The case became famous in India to the point that Mahatma Gandhi put up a commission to investigate the matter. A Swedish skeptic who investigated the issue, to expose the "fake" as he put it, later on wrote, "This is the only fully explained and proven case of reincarnation there has been."

I had put a post over here on the subject...

According to the University of Virginia spokesperson who referenced that number, the 4.5 years was the elapsed time between the physical death of the remembered entity and the physical birth of the remembering entity. It has nothing to do with the age at which the baby can speak.

Of course, the remembered information cannot be communicated by the baby until it begins to speak which seems to take place in the 2-5 year old age range.

Interestingly enough, this was NOT presented as a proof of reincarnation as there are other possible explanations for this phenomenon.

In addition, the presenter noted that there are indeed cases where two separate children have a remembrance of the same life.

Interestingly enough, that question was asked during the presentation and none of the children remembered anything related to "buried treasure" or hidden monies/valuables. Perhaps, that was not considered an important detail to remember for some reason.

This is consistent with Elizabeth Kubler Ross' extensive research on death and dying. She would interview people on their deathbed and she pointedly stated that not one person ever said that they wished that they had had more money or a second house or anything material at the time of imminent death. Such things were simply not on their minds at the time of imminent physical death. Their main regrets were related to not spending more time with loved ones or thoughts about people whom they had harmed.

When Andrew Carnegie was on his death bed, he was the richest man in the world. When asked if he was the most contented man in the world due to his financial accomplishments, he reportedly said that he was the most discontented person in the world .... and that, if God would give him a second chance, his goal in life would NOT be making money. It no longer seems surprising that "buried treasure" is NOT a detail that is considered important or even remembered in these "post mortem survival" cases.

I stand corrected. You have just cited a case where a "post mortem survival" case did indeed remember the location of "buried treasure". Good find.
