I dunno. Craigslist has made the market for "stuff" pretty liquid. I can get rid of most of my crap for a healthy fraction of what I paid with way less than an hour of effort per item. Hell, a whole lot of my stuff came from craigslist.
Just deliberately live in a small place, don't buy a lot of crap, and regularly cull. Buy only high quality and durable items and do it after a couple day's deliberation.
I'm pretty sure I could be liquidated and out of here in under a week. This seems to be the goal he's shooting for. I guess that's a good thing if you're rootless. But it makes one wonder about the days when people bought or inherited heirloom furniture, made to last over 100 years. The culture of disposable and cheaply made crap, and rootless people, is ... questionable.
- pkulak 16y agoExactly. And if you buy it on Craigslist, you can usually sell it again for almost no loss.
- CamperBob 16y agoExactly. Don't think of eBay and Craigslist as being in the buying and selling business -- think of them as being in the storage business. Store your unused stuff there and buy it back if/when you need it again. And the best part is, you don't even have to pay rent to the storage company!
