Have you ever met anyone who is the polar opposite of a hoarder? Like someone who cannot tolerate owning stuff and frequently throws out or sells stuff they need which they later need to buy again. (lemmy.world)

I've thrown things away that I know I could fix because I simply didn't have time. Working long hours to get by, and investing time in family and friends was more important, so it would take so long to get the thing fixed that something else about it would have broken just from waiting around. Eventually, I decided I can live without the thing or it's too important to daily life to go without is as long as it would take me to get it going.
