I disagree - sortof.
"money-hoarding" is very useful - money lets you do all manner of fun things.
If you're not sure what you want - hoarding money is a pretty good thing to do in the meantime. If nothing else you'll be able to spend it on therapy :)
But, should ultimately be a means to an end.
You are going to die, you can't take it with you - decide what you want from your finite life, and tie the money to what you can do with it.

I'm a minor hoarder of electronic components, and I'd probably be a pathological case if my wife didn't stop me. It's precisely the potential future usefulness that keeps me piling our basement full of old washing machine motors and garage-door solenoids.
- goldcd 8y agoOh, you should see the stuff I've got - all the wires, apart from the one I need. Fortunately money doesn't take up that much space (and can be used to buy old solenoids when you ACTUALLY need one). (although I fully agree the transactional costs of selling/buying mean you should at least keep a few spares to hand).
