I find this alternative lifestyle very intriguing. I currently own lots of assets. I mean, my wife and I don't have clutter, but we do own lots of nice things (quite a few unnecessary). I have noticed that the more I own, the more I am owned by my stuff. The maintenance does take time and energy. Slowly making changes (no clothes shopping for 2 years, outside of socks), no souvenirs from our travels, etc.
500 euros a month is very minimal. My Grandparent's lived off 640 dollars a month which is nearly the same as euros. They had a huge garden, canned veggies and fruits, went fishing twice a month, slaughtered a hog a year and hunted squirrel for squirrel and gravy. Humans have natural gifted abilities to survive. We live in a spoiled and fast world.

about the airbnb thing; this may have once been true , but not anymore. now , it is just business , an extra buck. i used to be a couch on couchsurfing . no charging. That is the spirit, for me.
But if your life is focused on NOT accumulating, cutting off and joining a minimalist group talking about cutting off, doesn't that become an obsession and interferes with a comfortable life ?
Not at all. People define themselves by how much they own, the big flash car, the big flash house & luxury holidays, its all about the Ego & looking good to other people. A cluttered house is a cluttered mind!!
Spend most of your life making money and enjoying life. Now that you're old you're encouraging me to be poor. I was bought up poor like most black fokes.

We don’t live on less, we live each day at a time on almost nothing.welcome to happy Africa
Very wise people 🌹
Really enjoyed this...thank you for sharing
I've been basically living like this for forty years.
That’s beautiful!!!!
seems I already belong in this movement, since this "nothing" is what I live by
People do live way beyond their means & end up with nothing in the end!
Now a days things are not abondened, but humans and love are dumped
Yr absolutely correct, sadly

YEAH - GO ON - GIVE IT ALL TO GATES AND SCHWAB -
😂😂😂😂
I’ve never really had the problem of too many possessions 😂
This documentary is probably cooler to the wealthy.
Good idea
First ad after 1 minute....emm f*ck it i'm gone...
Sounds like you're already preparing for the great reset, you'll own nothing and be happy
Well its coming sooner than you may think!!
Nonsense. Rich people telling us how to live with less
Motto Guzzi 💕
The elite should have tons and the regulars 0 nada nothing
I hope you’re joking!
@@sallypalmer6482 there is no joking , this the part of agenda" you will have nothing and be happy"
Its by choice. We really dont need everything we collect & its good to be humble… i bet they are a lot happier & more free!
Making poor cool.
Not necessarily. Decluttering is a great feeling. More people should try it😁😁
Ive really enjoyed this, it certainly makes one put things into perspective. We can minimalise & make a big difference
Some people arent poor, they just think differently to those who think they have to have the Absolutely best of everything!

This isn't a documentary it's propaganda for the WEF 🖕🖕
Talking about less from an MG... Don't mock the poor man. Go and live in Yemen, man.
Your statement is an oxymoron
Its about doing the means test!
