La la land
In my city I have a feeling there are more storage buildings than, Tim Horton's, Mc Donald's, Wendy's etc. combined.
I heard ages ago that these place was used by people who had to serve time in jail, so they put their stuff away for a couple of years,
Other people decided to travel the world, sold everything only kept a few things and stored some stuff away until they come back in a year or so.. Some were in between apartments or home renovations, Summer car, Motorcycle, Boat.

But now I notice that most people have this weird desire that they must have a storage facility to store their STUFF and keep up with the Joneses, or for their future projects they are trying to work on. Which they will never get to at all.

Are more people nuts now then they used to be 20 years ago?

I am sure there must be someone here on any person out there who has a collection of porn items that they are trying to hide from their partners. A woman told me once that she had one for her cloths she finds a thrifty stores "name brand" and she will wear one day. She paid 200 a month for the unit. Yes she was aware that her cloths may damage overtime.

Do you have a self storage Unit? and why?
 
I saw a video about a guy who was between apartments who lived in a storage unit for a month or so. He had quite a nice setup. He had a bed, big screen TV, small fridge and a toaster oven. He ran a cord out into the hallway for power and there was a washroom down the hall.
 
I used storage during my move in between houses. Their convenient to use if let's say your lease in between apartments falls apart.

There are many others who got creative and did similar things.
