There is absolutely an opportunity cost for all of the stuff you own. I won't publish my entire thinking on this, but after seeing my parents collect, hoard and store things for years and years, I place a high value on not having something (I tell myself that I am letting the store hold it for me.)

I still have too much stuff and its a fraction of what my parents had.

(Perhaps this is more of an American thing?)
