I was having this discussion last weekend with a friend with two homes, one with 4 garages the other with two plus a carport. He also rents storage space but most... half... some of that is for business.

Ten years ago much of the stuff we had accumulated we gave to friends who needed it. Nothing real valuable, things like glass blocks to fill in a cellar window, or materials for doing projects. But would have stripped to the waist and knife fought anyone trying to take it. Now we're both trying to find homes for the stuff. He's gone so far as to forbid his family, friends and employees from giving him gifts, birthday, Christmas or otherwise.
