OTOH I never lived 5 years in the same place and I think it is not that bad of an idea when I look at the sheer amount of unused or barely used shit people hoard over the years in their house.
Then one day people's health or econoly dwindle, they need to move to a place without stairs or to a city center clother to amenities such as groceries, pharmacy and healthcare without relying on a car they cannot drive safely anymore, and moveming becomes a huge task. Or they die and their survivors have to take on the burden of emptying/donating/selling all that shit accumulated over the years.
Every move I assessed what I really needed and what I didn't and I think my life is better thanks to that.
I understand this is a YMMV thing. I am not saying everyone should move every couple of years. But to many people that isn't that big of a deal and it can be also considered in a very positive way.
