As a kid with no control over the situation, 10 in 18 years. As an adult, 7 in the following 36 years, which includes multiple dorm moves in college. I’ve owned 3 houses over the course of the last 31 years. We were in our “starter” home for 4 years. The next house we were in for 25 years. I’ve been in the current house (our downsized retirement house) for 3 years. I don’t like to move and realize that my chaotic childhood probably had something to do with that.

@beermeplease The one thing (and only thing) I will say positive about moving is that it keeps you nimble. When we sold our home of 25 years, the process of going through things we’d accumulated over that time was overwhelming, and we’re far from hoarders. Selling was the easy part compared to whittling down to what we wanted to move versus donate or scrap.
