My wife is doing this, and made me join her Kondo'ing things, so she got to a point in her last pregnancy, where she Kondo'ed friends....i am still hoping I will not have the same fate....

There is a George Clooney (and Beca from pitch perfect) film about that, perfect for a lockdown evening: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Up_in_the_Air_(2009_film)
Had a rucksack theme too!
I am in the process of sorting out an HMRC computer demand for over £220 for an entiteled refund paid 3 years ago for the tax year 2016 17 and without the papers I would have no chance of proving them wrong.
HMG tax I am definately keeping for over 5 years as this is not the first computer issue with them.

At work our quality system has a defined record time for obsolete documents and records. Basically records like orders, invoices, etc get listed and a timescale for storing it along with responsibility for maintaining it. Fortunately directors get responsibility for everything even if they heavily delegate!!
IIRC financial records get 7 years. No idea why because that decision was historical and before my time there. I personally have very simple finances really so my records aren't significant and easily stored. I usually keep 5 years but will probably have some from even earlier.
