The article All My Life for Sale by Freyer was very interesting it made me realize how materialistic I am. All the things I brought from home that aren’t even necessary to have at school are here. I bring those things to show who I am and what I like to do and such. But Freyer sold a lot of his belongings that I would consider that I would need to live, like his toaster and his clothes and stuff I would never consider selling those types of items. To him selling those items are decluttering his space, to me that’s getting rid of memorable items.
There are certain things to keep, and certain things to get rid of when the time is right. But at some point in your life when you start to realize that you have no room in your house, or your house is starting to look cluttered you need to start pitching things so that you don’t go to an extreme and realize that its getting out of hand. And that’s what Freyer knew he had to do in order to declutter his house.
I found it interesting that he sold his items on ebay and asked for the buyers to keep him updated on the items that they were purchasing of his. I know how ebay works my dad uses it all the time. But sometimes when you buy things on there you never know what condition you are going to receive them in, but people trusted that. He had a good idea overall and it came to a success.
