Ep. 162 "The Quarantine Chronicles" vol. 12

Local-ish and new in the PNW WFH era

*Chris - *Less. Much less. The great Ebay purge of 2020 was successful for Chris. Credit card balance is $0. Yet the Force to buy something new is strong with him. To return to the usual life routine of having a balance on the Visa card. To getting a new thing. A want, not a need.

Reminders of less in the home office for Chris

Taking the month of August and not buying anything. Maybe September too. After all, we won’t need to be buying fall wardrobe items while working from home! Just sitting with my things like Steve Jobs did in 1982. Not buying something for the sake of buying it. It must be a Hell Yeah (https://sivers.org/hellyeah) purchase.
