actually I didn't have a problem with that line of his, assuming he meant 'mostly' from material possessions.

And the thing is Funkii, I think it's kind of obvious he meant that. And I don't know why you and especially stealth cherrypick and attack the obvious. I'm pretty sure everybody here understand that you need money to eat and to buy a home. That is not the essence of the discussion, but I think you already knew this.

like I said, I didn't have a problem with that part, I had a problem with the "this is why I have a problem with this thread" comment in response to the part of stealth's post he quoted. and also like I said, it wasn't a very significant point, I just wanted to make it because I think it's really easy to rail against materialism even to ridiculous extremes, and that to some/a significant extent, materialism is part of being human.
