Congratulations. Maybe you can move to Buenos Aires with me and TD. haha.

Anyway, one of the reasons I moved to LA was to get away from all my 'stuff'. I had a house off Burnett just full of 'stuff' and very little of it truly made my life easier and happier--just cluttered me and my mind. They said Einstein had only two suits and they were exactly alike because he said he didn't want to waste his thoughts on what he had to wear in the morning. To a degree I agree and understand, but, still, clothing is a luxury I don't skimp on--too much of an expression of myself that I take pride in.


Anyway, when I left Austin, I only kept what I could put in my Jeep and have pretty much kept it that way ever since. Very minimalist and it's liberating. Always ready at a moments notice, if the right opportunity arises, to up and move or take on a new adventure(I guess I've always liked Chuck Palahniuk's quote about how things you own tend to start owning you).


Also, I've always been this way, but the only things I buy must be the best. In other words, I buy with purpose and (most of the time) I fully use the things I buy.


Interestingly, for those guys worried about "game" and how materialistic girls can tend to be (technically, more of an issue in LA than ATX, but still the same), it has had zero impact for me to dating some of the hottest and most desired women in the world. Some even appreciate it in this crazy place.
