What you said echos what I have heard so many people post on TOTV and from meeting Villagers when I have visited TV. They brought and paid for a van load of furniture with them from up north, and after a year of living in TV, they got rid of all or most of it.

When/if I move to TV someday, I will bring my laptop, my clothing, some personal items, and my pet. All furniture will be sold or donated as it is not worth moving to Florida. I am especially looking forward to getting rid of my snow shovel and ice scraper/snow brush.
