I assume this dude is some kind of extreme minimalist or something. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Minimalist for 2k/month sounds kinda fucked up tho :D

At that point, convert a van or something. It'd be a better move

For real, this guy is just terrible with money. What the fuck is he renting a desk for $600 a month for when Starbucks has free Wi-Fi?

As someone growing up with a hoarder, I have felt this compulsion strongly.

I have adversely nuked my files on my PC before because it's lower stakes than actual items. I desire full oversight and to know the purpose of everything to know whether or not it is needed, and I constantly fall far short.

I made the stupid decision to use a low-capacity SSD as my boot drive along with the decision that "This is my boot drive, nothing except my OS should be installed here.", and now, years later, I can't update my graphics card driver because it's full.
