Скачать или смотреть Anti-consumerism: Why Simplicity and Minimalism Equal Freedom

In this video, I talk about anti-consumerism — the simple but powerful idea of saying “no” to unnecessary spending. Why minimalism isn’t just about living cheap, but about freedom, profit, and time.
From Rihanna’s story of almost going bankrupt, to the psychology of shopping malls, overpriced gadgets, and the hidden costs of owning a car — we explore how consumer culture traps us, and how to break free.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in the loop of time → money → things → repeat, this video will give you a new perspective.
👉 Try one week without unnecessary spending — and see the freedom it brings.
