My husband used to throw away all old things, but I prefer to preserve them for their intrinsic and vintage value.

Glad you like old things. Sometime, you may hit upon some real antic piece. I too admire old things, old songs, old furnitures, old stamps; old coins etcs.

I like collecting some types of old stuffs too. For example old clothes that has an outdated fashion. I used to keep my mother's midi gown that was called 'baju bebek' one upon a time ago.

About old wife, hey... wife is not a thing, ok? Lol... why do you ask this in the first place? What do you think about your wife?

Once someone asked Ford (motor manufacturer) what is the secret behind maintenance of beauty of his wife. Ford siad two things look beautiful - his wife and his car - reason being both are sparingly used.!!

I have a habit of throwing away all those old and new articles which are of no use to me, no matter whether I get money for it or not, it should not be in front me anymore. My wife is reverse of it. She keeps all old thinks whether it is useful or not.

Yes I love the old things a lot because I get possessed with my things and never want to sell or exchange the things I own


myLot reputation of 88/100. ssh123 (18170)  5 years ago

So you are a collector of sorts. That is good. The possessive instinct is good particularly those who would like to possess money. They make more money in the process because they hardly spend.

I do uses and like old things but it depends on its usefulness and presentation. If it still works great or looks great then I grab for it. But if it something that you can no longer use for a long time or it looks dirty and no longer oresentable then I leave it.


myLot reputation of 88/100. ssh123 (18170)  5 years ago

It is but natural people discard useless things. But there are some things they are totally useless ,but has vintage value and in future it may fetch a good price. Like I have a rollflex camera of 1940's. It is in topic condition, the film 120 mm is not easily available, we have to put adopter for 35 mm film and can go on take 35 exposures. The vintage value is 5 times more than what I had paid in 1960's.

Not really. I do however like listening to old music.... I'm not into collecting old stuff, i prefer something new rather than old, unless it's very valuable or it's shiny, i wouldn't bother. Haha. ^_^


myLot reputation of 88/100. ssh123 (18170)  5 years ago

That is indeed a good idea. Shiny you said. All that glitters is not gold!! is the saying. I prefer to keep unique and old articles, because I have possessive instinct.


myLot reputation of 89/100. owstalaga (1024)  5 years ago

Hahah, i'm not really referring to gold bars or silver coins or anything... ^_^ i just like shiny stuff. I guess if it's a shiny old thing i'm more inclined to get or buy it.

i like to keep old books of ancient times, old furniture? no s=nt intrested that much as long as it is unique by itself! i like visiting the monuments and the museums......i cant tell nething abut old wife....nt married yet nah...so no comments...lol


myLot reputation of 88/100. ssh123 (18170)  5 years ago

Even if you marry (I suppose you are in couple of years), then remember not to throw her out if she becomes old. Old is really gold and more so in case of a wife, because man needs woman at his old age than at young. (not related to s e x).

I too love old books, I really miss by old friends whenever I think of them I feel a lot emotional, love old old movies, old manners, old cities and towns and my old my wife too. Due to constraints of space I cannot store many old things.


myLot reputation of 88/100. ssh123 (18170)  5 years ago

You can keep the old coins, old notes, old photographs of Gods and Godesses designed by Raja Ravi Verma and printed in Geremany before world Wars. Thanks for your response.

myLot reputation of 88/100. ssh123 (18170)  5 years ago

Most humanbeings are having collective instinct also known as possessive instinct. It is nice to keep some collections and study them in depth to acquire special knowledge. Sometimes these hobbies will lead to profession in that field.

Hello ssh. Speaking of old stuff, I think that I am also fond of them as I think that to some of them it is, " the older, the better", like our great and ancient cultures in the four greatest ancient counties in history.

I love my city Ganzhou, where I was born. It is an old city built in Song Dynasty as well as Hangzhou City, which was also built in the same dynasty, from 960-1279 AC. Right now we can still see some of the cultural relics in these two ancient cities, though the former is much smaller than the latter. I am so happy that my home is very close to the old walls built in Song Dynasty and later rebuilt in Qing Dynasty and after 1949. It has now become a very good place for people to visit and to rest for leisure.

As to an old wife, I think that it is the same to me. The older she is, the more she loves me and vice versa because the deep emotion grows between us as we are aging. We have a Chinese saying, "You get married young and you are a very nice company to each other when you are old". Yes, I love my old wife as always with time passing by. We find it hard to leave each other.

I love old things, dear ssh. Thanks for your nice discussion. Have a good day.


myLot reputation of 88/100. ssh123 (18170)  5 years ago

Lovely.I just could not help appreciate your thoughts on old things. Except Old habits die hard, all old things are worth keeping for memory and their intrinsic value. Yesterday from home I transport to my office one wooden almirah and that almirah was made in 1935 out of rose wood. In those days my father in law had paid $10 in 1935 and today it costs$1000 or more.


myLot reputation of 98/100. williamjisir (14130)  5 years ago

Oh, you are welcome, ssh. That is true indeed. The old things value a lot after so many years and they would cost more to get them.

Some of old things are great, they have a lot more value, some of things have a another value (sentimental value).Old cars are great,but one thing is that they are expensive.


myLot reputation of 88/100. ssh123 (18170)  5 years ago

That is right.It is the sentimental value that gives immense satisfaction to the collector of old things. Thanks for your response and have a nice day.
