Mario would be great at flipping houses.

Yeah, I have my seasonal stuff in the storage as well. And things that we only use on vacation, like the cooling towels. And some extra pillows.Yeah, I'm planning on it being more a space I use and open every now and then. So storing clothes that I wear seasonally and such.
Big thing too was the upholstered finish. I've been known at hotels to bang my head against wood headboards while sleeping.I've learned to put a pillow there. I currently don't have a headboard and there's a slight gap before the wall, so I don't do that at home. Or I put a pillow there.

That's a good idea too. Maybe then I won't go around looking for where I put a MB like I did in October. And then find it in...March.

HA!! Well, you do go a LOT more frequently than we do. If we're talking Disney, I go once every 5 years, approximately, whereas you go more like 5 times in a year. I have a bag where I put all of the Disney stuff that we need, and it lives in the storage in the bed, where it's accessible when I need it once in a blue moon. But I don't know how handy that would be if I needed it every few months.That's a good idea too. Maybe then I won't go around looking for where I put a MB like I did in October. And then find it in...March.

It would probably be cheaper for her to buy a house then to fly all the time

Err, last year it was three times between WDW and DL. It helps that the flights are two hours and there's ten non-stops on Southwest a day. We're hogging the planes.
This year...it will also be three between the two.
2021 it was four. We just had points we had to use or lose and kept going. That was a fun year. 
The thing was it used to be for DL that you could only use MB+s that you had linked to DL there; you couldn't use ones that you bought and used in WDW there. So I had bought one for DL. Then I couldn't find it. Whelp, I decided to try my 50th WDW one. And lo and behold, it worked; they finally made it so you could use them for both places. Then I found the DL one last week. After my trip in October. Lord.
I probably should just leave them out since my bed is being delivered on April 2 and my trip is in May.

I don't pay for flights a lot; I have a Southwest card and use points a good bit. And then I also fly to visit my aunt in SC.
I need to live in Maryland because of the healthcare here unfortunately. Basically, for what I need, the choices are Massachusetts, Minnesota, and SoCal. Too cold, too cold, and too expensive. I'd absolutely live in San Diego if money were no object and I had no other obligations; I love it there.

You either fill out a card at the post office and turn it in at the window. (I assume at the window, you provide some sort of I.D. to verify your present address, so that your mail can then be forwarded to a new address.)
Or, the forwarding procedure can be done online as well, although I think there's a small fee (just over a dollar, using a credit card online). I'm assuming the online fee is for an address name and search they do, before they start to forward someone's mail to a new location.

At least you don't the issue with modern technology as Obi Wan Kenobi has with computers:
Current generation either too lazy or just want to complain. One can Google what to do in that case or maybe open their mouth and ask someone for help.

When I read his first post, I didn't think it was necessarily related to any generation. (Also, I just noted his response below a few minutes ago, to your post.) His sentence was somewhat vague, so I can only guess below.
My interpretation (I could be wrong) of his first post, was that he either couldn't get a clear response for details, (from someone working at his post office), or, that he had asked some people he knew, how to do it. Whatever scenario happened, he was surprised that it was a confusing moment for some.
My hunch is that when people are moving, they're overloaded with details, and perhaps (some) might forget this important detail in the moving process.

It’s important for all to forward or stop mail to discourage bad guys to notice mail is overflowing in mailbox . Also for ones like us who still gets the newspaper delivered to our driveway, we stop the paper. Somewhat related we turn off the main water supply to the home. Other neighbor came back to see home completely flooded when pipe burst while they were away.

Why would that happen? Did I miss some part of this discussion? Old age doesn't mean stupid. If some form of senility is involved then it is still the younger people that didn't do the forwarding process isn't it? The forwarding process is a two parter. There is informing the post office to forward and there is informing relevant originators of the mailings of the new address.

I think what he was trying to convey, (based upon the earlier part of the conversation on the thread) was that it was not specifically younger people, but people of other generations as well.
