Three piles. Background, I moved roughly every two years from 1 until mid twenties. Not a military family. Even with this I still move several boxes of stuff that I never open until the next move.

First pile is stuff you must keep/love.

Second is stuff that is okay or may be nice-to-have.

Third is stuff that can be sold/donated/disposed of.

Get rid of the last two piles.

I think I've met myself, yes.

I have a friend who, and this is not a typo, has 39 children, 38 of whom are adopted. She absolutely wants nothing and does with as little as possible, I think it's just a side effect of raising that many kids.

I’m somehow both. I frequently buy something, and discover when I get home that I already have several of said thing. ADHD medication is helping this a little…
