LIVING WITH LESS IS MUCH BETTER, by Graham Hill (Marc Leirado)

Graham hill , says that every day people have to buy many things to have more stuff , until the point that those things don't even fit inside their houses , and people look for more space to put their properties.
This causes many negative effects: like for example waste money unnecesarly. But the worst thing is that without realizing what we are doing with all our stuff we still have the same level of happiness.
Therefore the best way of living is having less things , having the ones you need , and have more freedoms that benefits us economically.
Graham hill , explains us his case , he wanted to live in manhattan in a big house , with a big office , and a lot of space to bring guests , etc. But in the end he had to stay in a small flat of 30 meters2 in manhattan. In his new flat he is very happy even though it has small dimensions.
This man says that when you have little space we should think of thi three things:

1) if we really need the things we want to buy , think if it is necessary or not to be happy.
2) we also have to think of how many things do we need , for example , how many chairs , cd's , movies, ... do we need , do we need so much ?
3) if we should buy multipurpose furniture to save space , like for example closer beds , extendable tables , ...

In conclusion , he proposes all this for us to figure out if we really need so much. If we could change something about our life , if we need more liberty , or more time, we have to make space for good things to enter our lifes.
