Use Probability with Decluttering

There's been a lot of coin flipping going on in math class as we study probability this week.  Here's a question when you are considering whether to get rid of a certain item in your house:

"If I flipped a coin with Tails = Keep and Heads = Donate,  which would I secretly root for?"  In all likelihood, most of us would root for donate.

Remember the feeling of calm and peace in a hotel room?  It's because there isn't a ton of stuff around.  We can have that simplicity in our homes as well.  Take a chance today; clear out some clutter.  If you need to, grab a penny to help you make decisions.
