Update: How many square feet do you need?

by Tammy on July 29, 2009

Pope Estate, South Lake Tahoe 47Last week, I asked you how many square feet you need to live a good life. A number of you left very interesting comments. The number of square feet varied per person, but one astounding theme emerged. A majority of folks mentioned that they need to get rid of excess stuff.

Jacob said:

Currently 2 persons + 1 dog at 289sqft (34′ RV). We could do fine on less with better organizing. Unused space taken up by 1 closet, 1 swiveling chair, and the two front seats which are only used for driving. Also, I’m ashamed to admit that we still own some stuff we don’t use on a weekly or even monthly basis.

Like Jacob, I have excess stuff that I don’t use on a daily or weekly basis. Even though I’m under 100 personal things, stuff seems to creep into my life. I don’t need anymore square feet to store my extra clutter but it needs to go. Maybe it’s time to revamp my 100 Thing Challenge rule list??
