Are you a minimalist?

It seems important to you so let me answer: I once wrote that my gf is watching sometimes stupid things on her tablet. And sometimes I see that. Yes, that is a fact.

 

Also, the fact that I don't have a TV doesn't mean I don't own any computer which allows me to watch videos. In fact, I own several PCs, tablets, notebooks, smart phones. I work with computers. 

And I watch videos to learn something and get entertained. 

No. Its not important to me.

But you are projecting false impressions unto others.

I think you secretly watch tv on your gf's tablet.????????

    I try to clear out the clutter from time to time. But, I will never qualify as a minimalist. I love the luxuries too much. An over the top home theater, with 7 high end speakers, a great amp, and a 77

  • Yes, but for me minimalist doesn't mean sacrificing standard of living, for example living in a room with a rug instead of house with a couch and a bed just because you can do both on the floor. To me

    So when you are in Issan with your mat and small drawer what then? Become a buddhist or something. I have posted this before on the god topic from The Onion. Something to consider.     

My hard-belongings fit into one 60 liter backpack aside of a daypack which essentially is my entire office. For soft belongings I would have a monitor and one black container box where everything else would fit in, anything else I can sell (my desk, chair, few other things).

 

Have been living like this since I am young, it's insane how much stuff we can collect. I can essentially be ready to move anywhere in just a few hours, ship the monitor and black box by post, someone can do it if needed, just let the grab pick it up and pay a decent tip.

The only definition of "good stuff" I can think of is if maybe you're a professional musician and you've acquired expensive equipment, sound studio ... or sth like that. 

Otherwise, most stuff seems replaceable to me. 

And books too maybe ... but a container for books?

Yes, you hit it exactly correct...:thumbsup:
–Furthermore there can be some few stuff of affectional value like art and paintings, now you have the 20-feet container...????

I bought new TVs, furniture and almost everything else in Thailand, even that I would have space for some more stuff in the container...????

Ever since I have come back from Pattaya I have spent my non working days "decluttering"

I have gone over every drawer chucking out stuff I don't need 

I have absolutely no idea why but I dreamed when I was in Pattaya that's the very first thing I will do when I get home to Australia

 

Even I didn't want to throw my old clothes out and I hesitated so I just threw it out the window on my level 32 balcony here in Sydney Australia ,I have no idea where it landed and I don't care ,it's out of my life !

 

 

My dream eventually is to sell up and move to a small 1  house in isaan in the country side  Thailand and have no clutter to live as a minimalist , not even a fridge 

Just a mat on the floor , a small drawer and not even a tv 

 

How many of you live in cluttered rooms full of junk 

What else did you throw out the balcony? ????
