How much stuff do you own?

too much stuff, im basically drowning in my own room. a week ago i tried to clean and it took me like 2 hours to clean one of my vanity drawers. i don’t have a lot of useful things, most of the stuff i own are things that i have somehow become attached to (like a rock) and have stuffed in a cabinet.
Have you read the book by Marie Kondo about cleaning? She is very popular nowadays.
 
I own a lot of stuff. I can’t really throw anything away, so I often keep stuff that I don’t need or use anymore. I own a bunch of different clothes (I‘ve already given away quite a lot of them though), almost an entire petshop for my budgies (haha), different video game consoles and games, half the stock of a guitar store (xD), a collection of DVDs etc. And that is just the stuff that I use. My collection of things that I don’t use is probably even larger. I am actually content with the way things are now though. I don’t really have space problems, and if I‘ll ever have or want to move out, I can still throw something away.
 
I have stuff on bookshelves, in drawers and cupboards. Mostly books and hobby stuff. I'm not running out of space but I'm concerned about how much time and effort my husband and son will have to spend to get rid of all my stuff after I'm dead. (Sorry for being morbid. It's just a fact that I'm getting older every second. 😅 ) Now, I always think twice about getting something new. If I do get something new, I make sure I clear out something old.
 
I don't have much stuff. My collections are relatively small. I sell/donate a good amount of my books every several years, and I keep my record and physical game collections compact. I don't have many clothes or shoes either. I haven't grown since I was 14 and I don't see much of a need to replace the clothes I already have.

It's weird because my parents keep everything. We share a large storage unit that's overflowing with junk from the 60s-90s. If I had to guess my stuff only takes up 20% of it.
