A minimalist lifestyle is not about deprivation. It's more about finding more value in the things you already own. Minimalists therefore remove unnecessary things from their lives and only keep the things that serve a purpose and/or bring them joy.

I value cleanliness and companionship more than size or variety. When I dated my old boyfriend I used to visualize the two of us renting an apartment together after marriage. It would be small cause outside of my parents money, neither one of us were rich, but it would have had two people who cared about each other which would have been enough for me. I had a female friend who rented with two other mates that were a dating or married couple and she seemed to have the perfect living situation cause she had friends and dates and room sharers to help her with costs. All the friends she could want, despite not having a lot of money.
That is impossible when you like to collect many things.
"Have you considered becoming a minimalist?"
Fuck no lol.
"A minimalist lifestyle is not about deprivation."
Yeah it is.
"It's more about finding more value in the things you already own."
I own a LOT of things, I'm a collector, researcher, bookworm, anime enjoyer, gamer, geek, artist, musician, writer, builder, etc, and I find value in all of my stuff.

All my stuff does that, there is nothing to remove, I'd be bored af if I got rid of that stuff.
wow, that's a good challenge!

I'm a collector of things so not really.
But I would say if I was rich I would lose some urge to collect as well I feel no need to buy things right away if I can buy things anytime. And I would be way more organized.
