What I don't really understand is, do people really have than many physical documents that they need to keep track of, that such a system is worth it? E.g. to file my taxes (in Belgium), I think I only ever need a few (maybe even only 1 or 2) digital documents. Or is this more a mentality thing? I know my parents have folders and folders, e.g. my father kept all expense notes from his work even after retirement... I throw everything away once it's handled.
