For a long while in my early to mid 20s I moved around a lot, either from chasing work, for a woman, or from losing work or woman. My only furniture was a shitty futon from Walmart that pulled double duty as my couch and my bed, a plywood ‘entertainment center’ that my TV sat on even though I never plugged it in because I didn’t have anything to watch on it, and a rolling chair with a tiny writing desk attached to it that I got for free, where my laptop sat and I spent most of my time at while home. I probably could have afforded a couch or table off Craigslist or something if I saved up for it, but I had all I needed and didn’t want to spend money on more crap to carry to my next apartment
Some. Some folks are naturally kind of ascetic, others aren’t really but have difficulty justifying letting themselves have things. But most of the time the OP picture is a function of circumstances.
Are there people who actually live like this? I genuinely don’t understand…
You don’t always get a choice.
Fair, okay, my question is then, does anyone choose to live like this? And if so, why?

Yeah where’s the gaming/PC setup?
