The theory is simple: instead of buying a household item or a piece of clothing or some equipment you might use once or twice, you take it out and return it.

    I don’t think all friends and family own all these stuff either. And this really does save money. The machine here is at most consumerism, incentivizing us to pay extra and own everything we’ll use for like at most a month, which I think is too far of a stretch.

      Well put. It’s preventing waste and excess for sure. It just seems like a manufactured problem from pushing us apart.

      Curious what goods you don’t think friends would have back in the day from your perspective
