I feel this is a new trend for younger gens: to buy less stuff but they still pay for experiences. This will change the future of retail landscape definitely.
Don't want to burst your bubble, but this is not a new trend. It has been ongoing for more than a decade now. I have learned to live this way for a long time and so I hope you follow it.
Minimalistic thinking and spending will lead to a younger and more financially comfortable retirement. I think clutter is the worst, it's just like hoarding. We don't need so many useless materialistic items in our lives, its more valuable to maximize the quality of life itself.
i only wear a plain white, black, grey shirt black pants and a nike white shoes everyday. It save my time and money. i saved approx. $ 4,000 a year. Food are free in my workplace and it helps a lot to save more money.
mar juan I’ve gone that direction and I’m a female from Long Island who grew up in the mall so it was tough! I wear uniforms now like Steve Jobs and I love it!
To me.. If you are happy with certain things.. For instance Fashion or cooking or even gaming.. It's okay to spend more on it.. Being a minimalist doesn't mean you have to cut corners on the passion you enjoy the most.. Then again.. Minimalism has a different meaning to everyone. Do what works best for you!
I think having a pair of sneaker for every activity you do e.g. Training, casual wear, office, dress is better than having 2 pair only for all occasions. It will prolong the lifespan of your shoes at the same time will make you more presentable. Just my two cents.
Pawel Papiesh bro it’s all about creating budget and getting steals or buying clothes in general has value and could be sold for more or the same it depends on who you are if your smart with it you can gain a lot of profit or if your not you’ll lose money. I’d say you have to be into clothes to understand but not just designer buying old clothes etc.
If I want to support someone I prefer buying their merch, something practical like a t-shirt. It seems like a better exchange than putting money into a tip jar.
@@muckymucks I think patreon is more minimalist than buying fast fashion from someone, also by buying t-shirt it will give them smaller cut than if you subscribe on patreon.
I admire you for being so wise beyond your years, you’re still so young to have already decided on minimalism , I can tell you are very intelligent . I wish more young people are like you, very remarkable I applaud you, keep it up and I hope you spread the message
Hi Leila, thanks for the comment, you are too kind with your words! 😂 Will continue to make valuable videos, learn and grow at the same time. Appreciate the support!
great point about phone upgrades, the trend to switch phone every year became a bit ridiculous, phones nowadays are made so well that they will last 3-4 years without problem! and it saves so much money...
Same here.....3 pairs of shoes, I still have my galaxy s8, own very little clothes, I spend $1 us dollar on a coffee at McDonalds, drive a small cheap car....thanks for your video it keeps me motivated.
Minimalism can also become a label we wear saying “I don’t buy this, I don’t spend money on that.” It’s better to demonstrate, not explicate. I adopted minimalism as a lifestyle back in 2013. Although I am a watch collector, they bring me joy even though they can be expensive.
Liked and subscribe, it's been a year now that I started paying more attention to my spendings and hordor lifestyle, I was totally on the consumerist side of the spectrum and always broke because I kept buying stuff thinking that would make me happy, totally wrong it made miserable even more, I am slowly adhering to this minimalist mindset and feeling happier. You popped up on my recommendation after Graham Stefan video, thanks UA-cam algorithm and great content bro
I was also a collector. I collected antique dolls. I had hundreds. I'm in the process of selling them, keeping only ten or less. I realized I had too many to enjoy. Keeping them clean and organized was so much work. Many went neglected because I got overwhelmed. Now I know they'll be loved when they go to new homes.
Agree about shoes. Such a hassle to keep them clean. Always have to clean them after one wear, can’t even walk normal without worrying about getting them dirty.
personal thought? Having, buying & keeping books never a waste ,but an investment to me. Finished reading them? exchange, donate or better yet .. sell'em!
Donald J Joseph Right! I have my own manga collection and it’s still growing, but I always read and reread volumes while waiting to get new ones or just because of the hype. I personally think its an investment because I will always reread and don’t need tech to use them
As a bookworm like me, may I suggest you to try Kindle as well. Many books in one device, more space saved! You can also bookmark them and write you own notes in it too!
I agree with all of these except for the gifts. I love giving gifts. I just think it’s different in American culture because it’s basically expected to get gifts for nearly every occasion. I’d prefer to give something handmade or an experience though if all parties are in agreement to that! 🎁
For me it mostly came by itself. I never cared much about brands (more like the opposite), I never cared much about different clothing pieces so I ended up distilling my clothes to black and white, never cared much about shoes.. The phones and random shit was more of a "I've bought all of this and now it's all garbage" that got me to toss shit out of my life and then realise that unless I stop buying shit I will never stop tossing it out. Then I slowly did more "activity" stuff with my money instead of buying stuff that does nothing for me (IE: Travel with friends, festivals, investing in useful gear for my business) and then whenever I irrationally fall into the "I want this" mindset even if I don't need or care much about it, I'll always have something I'd rather spend that money on.
Thanks for the comment Joe! There no way to compare. As long as it is intentional and suits your lifestyle, that's all that matters. Glad that this can help! Appreciate it!
I started offloading all my sneakers last year as I started KonMari method and eventually going even further with minimalism. As someone who grew up in hip-hop culture (90's Bronx, NY), I'd always wanted hype sneakers even though my Chinese parents would never consider buying anything costing more than 50USD. When I finally got a six-fig job, I started collecting but quickly came to realize it was a curse. Not only was I losing closet space, but I was also obsessed with staying on top of drops and having anxiety every Saturday morning trying to cop. I hit 50 pairs before my KnMari/minimalism journey. It's now down to 8 (mostly classic AJ1's) and I think I'm good here although I could take the plunge and ditch them all.
You're missing out on the coffee dude. Treat yourself to some specialty coffee from an independent shop and speak to your local barista about where exactly those beans have come from. I promise you, it'll change your world.
Aaah. Books. Libraries. Hard for me to give up buying books, even though I hardly ever visit a book shop these days. Charity shops here have second hand books, and I've stopped browsing those shelves, but still... Books are often the best Gift as well : I bought my friend's 16 year old daughter a used book from my local charity shop - " What every girl should know" which listed everything you need to know when you get your own place and start to be grown up, and covered simple meals, housework routine, shopping, laundry, cocktails, plumbing etc - and apparently she had it beside her bed and read it every night, and even started doing her own laundry and a share of the housework. Result! There is something about the Experience of holding, reading and using an 'Analog' book that nothing can replace. In addition, having worked in Libraries for nearly 10 years in my youth, and as a life long learner, and Library user, you can't replace these either. I am a great user of digital books, too, but love paper, print and the sensual pleasures of a new, or even second hand book. I also resent the fact that digital books don't necessary survive a software update! Infuriating! and I see that as part of the Great Consumerist Conspiracy!
Totally agree with what you've mentioned. Physical book is way easy to read as compared to digital ones in my opinion. Great to hear your perspective on books!
It's always worthwhile to visit the library and have a look through the books they sell off from time to time. I've purchased quite a few that way. And I still buy from Worldofbooks.co.uk for secondhand bargains or titles I've written down that I've wanted. And regarding your comment saying that ebooks don't survive a software upgrade - That will definitely make me NOT BUY AN EBOOK OR EBOOK READER.
i started to learn about how to live as a minimalist a few months ago, and the first thing i declutter is shirts. now im going out with only my black uniqlo basic crew neck everyday. it feels good. hopefully i will declutter more in the future :)
Interesting. It is important to support museums, as an art lover, if I visit a museum I always try to buy something from their gift shop, if not for me, then as a gift for someone I love. This source of revenue influx is important so that the museums can continue to afford having low ticket prices or free entrances for students to their exhibits. Otherwise art becomes available only the wealthy. Support your museums people!
I like your thinking about minimalism. I agree with that because in my opinion minimalism is have meaning of everything what we have. Maybe there some people have many book or sneaker but they were not wrong if they has their meaning. Keep going to share your opinion and point of view. Everyone need know about their self and have meaning in everything
Thanks for the comment Irfan! I totally agree with what mentioned. I think "minimalism" is highly individual and what's important is doing what's intentional to oneself.
started trying to become a minimalist at the same time i was really getting into fashion. its hard but you gotta focus on what you can use multiple times vs. that one cool sweater once a month.
I’ve done the same with my closet. I took a trip to california in which I only packed a few of my favorite pieces. These pieces are now my permanent and only wardrobe. Black and white of course😅😂 Loved this video man thanks again for the editing help🙏🏻
Hey man, just found your channel and I love your videos. Wanna ask, is that gift shop in this video the one at the Taipei Fine Arts Museum? Looks super familiar!
Thank you for making this videos. These past few weeks, ive been watch videos about what they stop buying, and it actually make sense not to buy them. Im a student, and seriously ive been buying alot of stuffs, especially fast fashion in the past few years. I really felt that i wasted my money on clothes, which in my case, i got a lot of clothes. I keep on buying and buying, just because its on sale, but still. I hope i can change my addiction, because the truth is my family didnt came from a wealthy family and here i am wasting all my money buying unnecessary things. And im only 1st year uni student, but i shop like a wealthy adult 😔😔
I have been binge watching your videos, I just subscribed, and trust me, I am minimal who I subscribe too, I have enjoyed each one of your videos I still have my sunsung S6, but I hardly use my cell. The people who have walls and walls of shoes in their BIG closets, I know feel bad for them
Humanoid Typhoon If you use it daily and you will use it in the future it’s not useless. Look at it on a “cost per wear” basis is what’s really helped me and my buying habits.
I am not minimalist but I don't own alot of products,I only buy apparel mainly from thrift stores and I don't buy unnecessry footwear I don't own lots of makeup products or skincare and try to use natural ingredients shampoo and soap.i am trying to be a minimalist myself maybe in a few year I will become one.i am still using plastic,it's hard to get rid of plastic completely but I try to reduce use of plastic bags a much as possible .
1:33 I wouldn't consider Uniqlo fast fashion, my closet is 90% uniqlo whether be it pants , shirt , hoodie, I would say the quality of the wears is pretty good, if you compare it to F21 or H&M
I educate my teenage children not to buy fancy clothes which only last for a few months, but buying the classic and basic clothing instead. We watch UA-cam tutorials to learn new things instead of buying books. We try not too bring lots of things when traveling. Thank God, many people living minimalist lifestyle today. It’s good for our health.
yesterday was 10 so i felt like throwing ten thing from table n i did. love all your videos very inspiring n love you too. i always wonder how do japanese live without stuff.
The best coffee is the coffee you make at home. And IMHO, "expensive" coffee is 100% worth it. By that I mean freshly roasted coffee beans. For a luxury product, it's way more affordable than wine, chocolate, spirits, meat or tobacco... And it's just as satisfying!
Hi CK, I just want to know what Black, white shirts you buy? I like what you are wearing. 😊 I just got subbed to you and planning to be a minimalist as well 😊
Its just the new life: Stop consuming things we ACTUALLY don't need and focussing on things we have forever (e.g. traveling experience). Minimalism 2020!
I don’t buy Warranties. Storage containers, sorting tools or organisational products, trendy home deco stuff, fast fashion, purses that aren’t black, knicknaks I’ll have to clean. Food at restaurants. I’ll keep two of things if I have two of them. Cookware, camping gear, etc. that’s only used 1-2x/year, =kept. Keep receipts & user manuals. I buy in bulk to save $, even if I have clear space. Need to work on my love of accumulating hair products!
this guy picks up an entire lifestyle just to stop buying gifts for his girlfriend. respect
😂
False. An experience gift is absolutely a gift and often more expensive even.
The most valuable gift you can give someone is your time.

I am not minimalist but I don't own alot of products,I only buy apparel mainly from thrift stores and I don't buy unnecessry footwear I don't own lots of makeup products or skincare and try to use natural ingredients shampoo and soap.i am trying to be a minimalist myself maybe in a few year I will become one.i am still using plastic,it's hard to get rid of plastic completely but I try to reduce use of plastic bags a much as possible .
1:33 I wouldn't consider Uniqlo fast fashion, my closet is 90% uniqlo whether be it pants , shirt , hoodie, I would say the quality of the wears is pretty good, if you compare it to F21 or H&M
I educate my teenage children not to buy fancy clothes which only last for a few months, but buying the classic and basic clothing instead. We watch UA-cam tutorials to learn new things instead of buying books. We try not too bring lots of things when traveling.
Thank God, many people living minimalist lifestyle today. It’s good for our health.
Thanks for your comment! Its amazing how you start educating them about this since young, glad to hear that from you!

I am very inspired and pushing me more to become minimalist. ☺️

The best coffee is the coffee you make at home. And IMHO, "expensive" coffee is 100% worth it. By that I mean freshly roasted coffee beans. For a luxury product, it's way more affordable than wine, chocolate, spirits, meat or tobacco... And it's just as satisfying!
I like the watch your wearing. What brand is it ?
Still rocking my iPhone 6 plus!
I only had the battery replaced last year.
Hi CK, I just want to know what Black, white shirts you buy? I like what you are wearing. 😊 I just got subbed to you and planning to be a minimalist as well 😊
Video editing skills on point.
what was that minimalistic book you were reading in the video?
I bought $20 black Reebok for work from Marshalls & they lasted 5 years. My current work shoes are $20 black Adidas have owned them for 6 years.

Thanks for the support!
I don't own any fancy sneakers so I've gotta borrow them from my friend for the b-roll.
😂
Completely agree about the newest phone!!
Nice video 🙏🏼
Appreciate the support 🙏🏼
@@CKSPACE no problem, one of my favourite channels at the moment. Hope that you get the attention you deserve
Its just the new life: Stop consuming things we ACTUALLY don't need and focussing on things we have forever (e.g. traveling experience). Minimalism 2020!
Thank you ❤️
I don’t buy Warranties. Storage containers, sorting tools or organisational products, trendy home deco stuff, fast fashion, purses that aren’t black, knicknaks I’ll have to clean. Food at restaurants.
I’ll keep two of things if I have two of them. Cookware, camping gear, etc. that’s only used 1-2x/year, =kept. Keep receipts & user manuals. I buy in bulk to save $, even if I have clear space.
Need to work on my love of accumulating hair products!
Great video, thank you for sharing
Appreciate it, Mark!
Is that a sample from orcarina of time in the background???
Love that Ocarina of Time track in the background!
Thanks this inspired me a lot.
Thanks Jay, glad that it's helpful!
Fantastic!
Love your videos! I think I will try the 30 day challenge, even though it scares me a little bit.
Glad that you liked them! Feel free to let me know your progress!
What do you think about Evisu brand? I have been considering getting a few of their items but not sure if they will fall apart or last a long time.
what a gem of channel! did you create these grey transitions yourself? After Effects?
Thanks for the nice comment! No they are done in Premiere with the transition tool.
Graham is slowly killing the coffee industry
