I am really interested in how you determine if something is worth the time and effort to sell or when just getting it out of the space is better?

I like to spend money on courses! I love learning new things and online courses are so convenient I'm still in my decluttering debt phase so not much goes to extraswhen I do want to splurge I'll get some 'fancier' groceries and make a more special supper for my familyoh! and travel-that's worthwhile spending to me :)

I appreciate these videos so much, currently reading "Everything That Remains" and listen to the podcast at work weekly Y'all have changed my life for the better both mentally and physicallyBag Lady by Erykah Badu is a fitting song to minimalism
Comment from : @sarahgonzalez4732

Can you explain to me the term of "add value to my life" ?

I’m a serious minimalist to, and I’ve been struggeling with the fact that I spend a lot of my money on my Eames furniture and expensive basic furniture, but seeing the Eames chair, the book case and the sofa ooh my god I love it! Goodbye guilt feelings Thank you so much for this video!
Comment from : @obuchonrealestate

Sooo excited to find you guys for so many reasons! I’m near Dayton in Springfield! Love to see you guys doing so good!
Comment from : @heatherjohnson5612

So agree with the idea that time is not replaceable so I am trying to spend my time in more meaningful ways Finding videos like these most helpful!

I live by the saying "the poor can't afford to be cheap" I am still in debt, and barely getting by paycheck by paycheck, but all things I own are high quality Higher quality lasts a longer time, and ends up making life easier, and maybe even cheaper brbrMy winter jacket is 400e cashmir wool coat Its super high quality, stays dry in the rain, keeps warm at -30c, looks good enough for formal events, with a suit, but casual enough for every day life It's the only coat I own, and I think it will last at least 10 years more, maybe 15brbrSame with my winter boots, 300e, Gore tex, warm, steel toe, flexible, real leather, matches the jacket, comfortable to walk, ergonomic, very tough materials, can be used for long distance hiking in the forest at winter, but still looks good enough to wear even at formal events I doubt they will break any time soonbrbrI try to use the same logic with everything I own The hardest are the electronics, because the quality is not common or easy to find, also it becomes outdated pretty quickly But the phone I got now seems pretty good 300e, waterproof, protective case, small, fast enough for common apps If I don't fuck up royally, it could also last a decade easybrbrI am also always asking myself, what do I actually need
Comment from : @CupOfAwesome

I think you should spend it with the understanding that you can’t afford cheap stuff Really think about what I’m saying, because we live in such a throwaway economy
Comment from : @MrPrentissDJones

Ummm how did the minimilist handle a heart break?
Comment from : @louhworkscollectibles6031

This series of Livingroom Conversations has been my favorite of all the things you've done thus far They are short, fun to listen and watch, and add purpose I was called a minimalist about 14 years ago by a mother of one of my daughter's friends when my daughter was in the third grade I had never heard the term I guess I've always been that way And now it's a big movement Who knew? 😊
Comment from : @Kris-jh2ud

Food and travel are my go to ways to spend money👌🏼☺️
Comment from : @LinetteArroyo

Comment from : @ernststravoblofeld

Wow Eames Lounge Chair 👍👍brBe a minimalist so I can buy really nice and high quality stuff Gotta love sitting in my Eames lounge chair, in my tiny house, sipping a cup of cappuccino that I make with my La Marzocco machine 😎😎

What’s your investment strategy for retirement?
Comment from : @GothenburgSound

My gym membership adds so much value to my life It’s $150/month, which many would say is insane, but the joy and value I get out of it is immeasurable compared to other gyms I’ve tried My gym is a group of my friends and supporters, it helps me set and strive to achieve personal goals, it pushes me mentally, helps me practice focus and perseverance, it is a great pastime and provides awesome social interaction with like minded people It provides opportunities for philanthropic donations of time and money through their events as well I get so much more out of it than just a monotonous exercise that I have to force myself to go do
Comment from : @jill9606

I really enjoyed these short living room conversations, thank you for taking the time to share with us brbrI kept looking at that adorable plush dog in the chair behind you :)brbrMy question would be, how do The Minimalists tackle every day mailbox clutter?

Comment from : @freestyler1405

What book shelf is that?
Comment from : @BlindNoir

Josh, I'd be interested to know what your and Ryan's three favorite books are that are about Minimalism, but don't address it explicitly (ie think more Walden, less Life Changing Magic)

I lowerd my inkom by not working as much It's like I use my money to buy me time, time to do things I love like gardening
Comment from : @magdalenajosefsson2840

I hate having to buy stuff, but when I do its normally really practical like a headlamp or running shoesbrbrI wasn't always this way though, it's a shame looking around your room (before going minimalist) and seeing all the junk, the wasted money, the wasted potential, the wasted hours of your life
Comment from : @joezupko

Do you have a budget brLike certain money goes for bills,food etc?
Comment from : @masalladeloordinario91

How Many time do you spent in get out of debt?, and whats the best advice?
