I spent 2 years living in rural Central and South America, and of all the things that shocked me on my return to North America, the sheer amount of stuff people have was by far the biggest.

People have multiple cars, boats, quads, kayaks, tvs, couches, RVs, snowboards, skis... the list is endless.

I was dumbfounded that people have so much stuff, they pay money to put that stuff someplace.
