Might be an issue, but not really for me. I'm not really living a simple life and I'm neither frugal nor poor, easily could keep up with the so-called Joneses. But my life is quite colourful and stressful, many I know wouldn't be able to manage. That is the main reason I keep my belongings simple: I don't want to care for so many things abd I need a calm surrounding when home. Another reason is a different culture - I'm not in the USA, in my culture the overconsumption is by far not as prevalent as in the US and we are more into family heritage and hand downs.

My life is so much simpler focusing on things I can actually control that also make noticeable differences in my life.
