When there isn't enough, people hoard things and that is a hard mind set to get out of. I remember a little catch phrase people often used in the eighties. It went, "Let's see who can get to heaven with the most (whatever, quilting material, tapes, anything someone collected.)
More is always better -- until it is not.
Once the basics are met, it eventually becomes obvious that more means just that. More to clean. More to maintain. More to store. More to deal with all around. I suppose if that more is the center of your life, that feels like a good thing.
The center of my life is deep inside of me and I like to keep things simple. That is not to say I don't like nice things. I do. I just don't want to spend too much time taking care of those things.
