    The author of a new book on downsizing says people ``use the word ‘liberated’ to describe their move to a smaller space, with homes requiring far less time and money to maintain.”http://apne.ws/PyjxqNK

        It can be liberating to let go

        My #Fortune500 career addled mind saw downsizing, immediately thought of layoffs, and then considered whether using the term liberated for people who have been let go is actually the right term...

        Material objects end up owning you physically, mentally and spiritually. Yet far too few people have the mental fortitude to accept this in the face of society’s expectations and metrics for «success» in life.

        All my friends with giant houses, fancy cars and all the latest tech cannot fathom how I retired at 40. They will be working until the day they die.

        liberating for them, straightjacketing for everyone else. Side effect of this is that smaller, affordable homes are bought up by people with the ability to make a large cash down payment, preventing people who can afford that scale to be taken out of the purchasing pool.

        Uhh, I went from a townhouse in 2014 to a house on 2 acres now and you're going to need a SWAT team to get me to go back to a smaller living space.
