The real value of material things

Recently watched a video of a man who bought an abandoned house where a hoarder used to live. Seeing the various things left in the house made me remember that a person can indeed not take anything with him or her after death. My mind also took me to those “collections” that I once thought of having but not really came true. I’m a firm believer of collecting experiences more than things but I will not deny of thinking about collecting things that I like in the past. I know the feeling or satisfaction that comes with seeing the things that you love but is it really worth the time and money? We all will die, this is inevitable.

I try not to be a hoarder too; and love to concentrate on other things which are way more important than "collections" and stuff like that..

Antique things are very valuable. That's why people are treasuring their old possession in life from figurine to jewelries, cups to tables, among others.

@Nakitakona but given the chance you would want to collect antique pieces?

@weevee18 Nope only their pictures. If I do, we don't have space where to place them.
