Yep, I'm an inveterate purger. I have tried to control the purging with a policy of hanging onto things such as power tools for one year past its last use. And almost invariably, about two weeks after I finally got rid of the thing, I need it again.

In my case, I have a very small living space, so hanging onto things just means they're in my way. But I was like this even when I had a large house.
