The loss of what things would grieve you the most? I will leave out the things that would bother everybody like pets and cherished family mementoes and heirlooms. In my case the loss of the following would distress me the most:
1. My library. Many of my books would be irreplaceable, and they represent a lifetime of accumulation.
2. My guns and ancillary gear (for reasons similar to my library). I would rate my books over my guns because I read all the time. I go shooting for only about an hour each week.
3. My wardrobe. Hey, this is the "Dressed Well Forum"!
4. My exercise gear and gym equipment. This would be a distant fourth. I could really have all the exercise gear I need these days with a pair of Indian clubs and a couple of kettlebells. (Actually, on looking into matters, my kettlebells and barbell and dumbbell plates would probably survive a fire quite well, needing nothing more than fresh coats of black enamel.)
Beyond that, there's not too much I cherish greatly in the way of possessions. Anybody else like to play this game?
