4. We get bored easily
The thing about material possession is that we tend to get bored very easily. Sure, it looks all fancy the day we buy it and we are over excited at first. We are always fiddling with it the first few days. But later on we are no longer amused by it. When it comes to experience, however, we tend to remember it forever. Experiences are short lived and it stays as a memory. Hence, we keep on relishing it.
