I've found that all the extra 'stuff' becomes a burden to how you want to live your life. I have been giving the kids stuff I haven't used for decades... in the hopes that they can use it.

Example: Being 58, I've decided that I no longer need a 32' extension ladder. Not only is it taking up space in my garage, I don't feel like climbing a ladder that high ever again. Why should I? I have sons and son-in-laws for that! LOL The kid who got the ladder is happy to do my climbing for me. Same thing with chain saws, heavy sledge hammers, etc.

I keep the stuff I really want and give the rest away.
