I think I have 1.5 boxes of ring binders holding bank statements going back forever. I think you are right that I probably don't need to keep all of these. Thank you :)

Last weekend I spent several hours digging through two giant envelopes of Stuff from my schooldays and the first year thereafter (my university stuff has mostly been cleared out by now) and though it was quite fun to go through some of it, most of it is recycled now. I kept a few things, the things I thought I'd want to find in another 10-15 years.
