Things you bought or acquired a long time ago and still have. The oldest t-shirt in my collection I got when I was 13 in 1994, I've had the same wallet since 96. Had a belt since 96 too but that gave out a couple years ago.

I have a mala, which are counting beads for meditation. Passed down from my great grandma, they are probably 60-70 years old. Might be older. I also have a couple posters and a baseball glossy picture autograph I got in maybe 1987.

I got my grandmothers yucca plant when she passed in 05. She may have had it since the 1980's. It RIP'ed on me last year.

That's cool it lasted that long. Now that I think about it, I also have a bunch of pictures that were hung in my grandparents house, and some old ass scrolls that were packed in my great grandmas room that no one knew about til she died. Those scrolls might be from the 40's, all displayed on my walls today
 
stuff or clothes?
I got stuff that are +100 years old.
Clothes I actually have shirts and a wool sweater thats 20 year old.
A teddy bear my niece gave me that now 32 years old. The teddy bear..

My virginity and my innocence. Coincidentally they are the same age

Tell me your secret. I’ve tried killing yuccas with undiluted roundup, diesel, fire, etc. Bastards always sprout right back up like I used miracle grow.

I never repotted for fear of killing it, but it lived that long so idk. There were two main trunks and the dominant one rotted out 15 years ago, we were moving and it was sitting in a cold, dark garage when that happened. The remaining trunk eventually got too big and it had two side shoots so I cut it, and the side shoots did okay for years. Then we got 3 kittens in two years and although I didn't think they were the direct cause of its death, none of my plants survived those 2 years so I'm gonna go with cats. Oh right, it never got enough sun in my new house either so that probably had more to do with it.
 
I have some small items from my grandparents house that I took after they passed away 20 years ago. I have die cast cars that are over 20 years old. My middle and high school diploma are from the 90s.

That's If we're talking about longest time holding onto something.

I have baseball cards that are 70 years old and vinyl records that are 60 years old but I've only had them no more than about ten or so years.
 
Oldest stuff I own , probably a fossil shark tooth , that's 55 million years old or something silly.

Stuff that I bought new and still have, there's some magazines and books floating around that I bought back around 1982 or so.
