You can tell this is the case because people think they require a garage for their vehicles, but end up filling it with junk they never use. So they don't actually need the garage or the junk, but they feel it's necessary to have.

So many days when I'm walking my kids to school, we'll pass a house that has their garage open, and it's full of junk. Meanwhile they have a BMW or Mercedes parked out front, how is hoarding a bunch of junk in your garage more important that protecting the 2nd most valuable asset you have?
