The way we see it, if you have up to five – You like nice things but you haven’t completely lost touch with reality.
If you have between six and ten – you might need to start wondering if you’re Edward Norton’s character at the start of Fight Club, your life defined by your possessions.
If you have between 11 and 16 – there’s a serious case of notions happening here. You need to throw half of your shit out.
