Stuff means trouble

What stuff should I buy?

  1. Stuff to keep you alive (food)
  2. Stuff to integrate into society (shelter, clothes, shoes)
  3. Stuff you use often to create value (computer, paintbrush, tools)
  4. Stuff you can afford that makes life better (car, art, gifts, travel)

When not to buy stuff?

  1. Stuff to impress (fancy car, big house)
  2. Stuff that you decided you wanted five seconds ago (biscuits in supermarket, interesting looking book)
  3. Stuff you can't afford so you get into debt
  4. Stuff that you want because you have more money now (leads to cost of living inflation)
  5. Stuff just because others have it (fidget spinner, weird sink bowl that everyone has now)

It has never been easier to live poor in the West. Your behaviour towards stuff may be making it hard. Most stuff is a unessecary. Hold on to your freedom by buying less stuff. Just my thoughts about stuff.
