Yeah well the same thing kinda applies there, you see it's not about being a non-consumer, owning nothing or eating bugs and living in a pod etc. Just from a practical standpoint I just don't understand why people clutter themselves around with shit they don't need. What if you had to move somewhere, and do it multiple times?
A lifestyle like that I think either reeks of autism or of someone who just knows exactly what he needs and nothing else (aside from the current economical situation obviously).

I know a guy living for 2 years as software dev earning $200k, he lives in a 1 BR and literally has only a mattress and a heigh adjustable desk. Not even a bedframe, NOT EVEN a chair. Too extreme for me but there are also guys that live like that.

Agreed.

I used to look down on my boomer relatives who spent their retirement gorging themselves on food, basically eating themselves to death.

But honestly, food is all we have in life worth spending money on. I spend one day a week pigging out, and it's pure decadence. I have to eat healthy the other six days, though.

Anon, while not everyone is cut out for extreme minimalism the point is freedom. The less money you spend, the less power others have over you. Yes, you may still need to work, but not as much, or you can choose jobs that are interesting to you. Most people genuinely despise their jobs and would do anything to break free from it... anything except spending less money on social status games. They will be slaves forever.
