I've come full circle on consumerism. For much of my adult life I was a conspicous consumer, a spendthrift even. When I think of the stuff I have given away, lost or just plain lost track of with my various moves it makes me cringe.
I've got way, way too much shit, even now. I want to move to a smaller place at some stage, so again this will be a logistical nightmare. Not like you can sell it for much in this country.
Given my time again, I would buy less- much, much less- but better.
