These days, many Americans boast supersized homes, an outfit for every day of the month + 300,000 possessions, on average.
We also report high levels of depression + anxiety; we have debt, too.
Have you ever wondered why we continue to buy more + more, despite the fact that our purchases don’t make us happy, send us into debt + destroy our planet’s precious resources?
I do.
On this week’s show I divulge 4 reasons why we buy things we don’t need as theorized by both evolutionary + behavioral psychology. I offer up 4 ways to buy less, too.
Enjoy!
