My parents keep things too long, like sheets and bathroom towels. The towels are so hard, I would say like sandpaper.
I buy new things when it's needed. I don't use things infinity. Not forever. You are worth getting new things

these millennials are obsessed with consuming new products. Boomers saved for when times were tough. like the depression. its not that they felt less worthy it was practical. stop impulsive buying on amazon

Those boomers, they will spend lot's of money for thing which they will never use, nor need just to force the family to throw it away when they die.

So, I noticed these were all women. Men are more practical. We don't buy anything we're not going to use. Spending money on useless sh#t you don't need is almost exclusively a female thing.
