What are your feelings on amassing a lot of useless possessions through life?

As a youngster, I collected books and related items on a certain subject, which have never even been unpacked since I moved into my current home touching five years ago. Have you ever disowned very personal items ,and did you do it easily ?

With every move I’ve decluttered. The last 2 times I’ve given away more than I’ve got left. I couldn’t be bothered to sort through, list and sell things even though some of them were worth money. I figure the money is gone as soon as you buy something and the cost to my mental health hanging onto unnecessary things wasn’t worth it. The kids toys, books and dvds all went to community centres and the children’s hospital. Clothes and household items went to hostels and the rest I offered on the freebie sites.
