Being happy? Yes please I want to be happy. And not owning stuff is awesome - using Uber is so convenient over having a car: it's always everywhere, it doesn't loose 50% of its value in the first year, it doesn't need repair all the time, gas price. Not owning furniture and moving into a finished apartment is awesome. Renting electric scooters is awesome. Etc. Possessions are dragging you down and one day you don't own stuff but the stuff owns you. Yes please I want to own nothing and be happy.
But it feels like a slap in the face when someone from the lower class who doesn't own a lot hears it. Or someone from the middle class struggling to keep his buying power in inflation hears this from some suit wearing rich person.
