Here's your money briefing for Friday, April 11th.
I'm Arianna Aspuru for The Wall Street Journal.
If you're in spring cleaning mode, you might be wondering, how in the world did I get all this stuff?
WSJ reporter Dalvin Brown found that it's not just you.
Americans are drowning in their own stuff.
I tend to buy things because I forgot I bought it already,
but we're not just accumulating, like that's what's really interesting to me.
We're duplicating, we're buying more of what we already have.
We'll hear more from Dalvin about why it's costing you more than you think.
Stick around after the break.
Music Americans buy a crazy amount of cheap stuff, but it's costing us.
