Why Ancient Philosophers Owned Nothing (And Were Happier Than You)

You own 300,000 items. Diogenes owned zero. Guess who was happier? 2,400 years ago, a wealthy merchant invited Diogenes to his mansion—Persian carpets, Egyptian vases, gold everywhere. He waited for praise. Diogenes looked around, spit on the floor, and said: "I couldn't find anything more worthless than all this." This isn't just a savage roast. This is why you're drowning in stuff and still miserable. In this video, you'll learn: ✅ Why Diogenes threw away his last possession (the bowl incident that changed everything) ✅ The Princeton study proving more money doesn't equal more happiness ($75K is the magic number) ✅ How your stuff actually owns YOU (the psychology of possession) ✅ 4 practical life hacks to apply ancient wisdom today ✅ Why the smartest minimalist move was made 2,400 years ago ✅ The brutal truth about your 300,000 items (you use maybe 100) Modern science now proves Diogenes was right. Researchers found experiences beat possessions. Materialists are more depressed. Your unused gym equipment creates guilt. Your expensive car generates anxiety. Your overflowing closet causes decision fatigue every morning. Diogenes died the same day as Alexander the Great. Alexander conquered the world. Diogenes owned nothing. When they met, Alexander offered anything. Diogenes said: "Stand out of my sunlight." Even Alexander admitted: "If I were not Alexander, I would wish to be Diogenes." The man with nothing had what the man with everything couldn't buy.
