Whenever people think they know what a specific decade was like that they didn’t live through, they think all the furniture was brand new and just bought from a catalogue. In reality you have a style mix of at least 2+ decades at any point in time.
Yep. People underestimate how much money you can save by just… not buying new furniture. Thrift shops and hand me downs from elderly family members downsizing make up the overwhelming majority of the furniture in my house.
Do I sometimes wish I could have a different style? Sure. Do I want it bad enough to spend hundreds of dollars on it? No.
The only exceptions is stuff you rest on. Chairs, couches, beds. Don’t skimp on those or your body will hate you even more than usual.

You’re off by at least one order of magnitude. I went to a furniture shop recently and shit’s expensive, yo.
Depends on what you want. Massive & quality or cheap plywood and holds until you move it.

My house has stuff from like 8 different decades in it right now lol
You maybe should put great great great grandpa in the ground by now, he’s starting to smell.
Nah, they have stuff that’ll be the style in future generations, they’re a trend setter.
“Well uh, I guess you guys aren’t ready for that yet. Heh”
Bring back coffin coffee tables
Don’t call g. g. g. grandpa “stuff”!
You’re pretty much stuck at whatever style was cool when you’re 20-30ish. So your parents are probably stuck at around the time you were born.
