Why do we keep so much stuff - uncluttering in retirement!

from Life Starts at Retirement Hosted by Maureen Dobranski

Why do we keep so much stuff? This year I finally opened the storage room under our stairs — a space that hadn't been touched in years — and found everything from a box of my husband's forgotten beer can collection to baby shoes I could never part with. Here's what I found, what I kept, what I let go of, and the honest truth about why I'm still not finished. What's hiding in your storage room, closet, or garage? Tell me in the comments — I'd love to know I'm not alone. Join our community of 35,000+ retirees in the Life Starts at Retirement Facebook group: / lifestartsatretirement
