Hah, sure (some) cars and homes) but that’s cheating, some assets will of course be timeless. Sure also (some) watches and cameras are too but they’re disproportionately expensive :D
Why am I looking at a broken laundry basket? Why are all my laundry baskets broken, just from hauling clothes around? Why is the shelf that I'm looking at now broken on top? I have a chest of drawers that is now ~45 years old and was for the time a cheap piece of junk, that is, particle board and wood, but it's still in great condition, basically like new.
It would only take a bit more plastic on my laundry baskets to last indefinitely, just like my cheap chest of drawers has lasted decades because it only has a bit more thickness on the drawer bottoms than anything does nowadays. You shouldn't have to step up a factor of magnitude in cost to get something that will last, and to be honest I've been bitten a few times even then and merely gotten a higher grade of trash.
Personally I am quite lucky, having learned woodworking from a very talented shop teacher in high-school, I am more than capable of building my own furniture. One of my first projects was an end-table with a chessboard built into the top with a few decorative inlays, all cherry and maple. When I built it, I put maybe $20 extra (nearly a decade ago, forgive my memory) worth of support boards, the table is one of the most solid things I've ever personally see, and was capable of supporting 3 ~150lb people standing on it (yes, it was fun to test this). I remember having to beg my mom to purchase the wood, and the total was under $200, ballpark $150 I think, not including labor of course. I fully expect it to last well past my own life, and it will be a great hand-me-down to my kids.
Contrast this to a nice looking bookshelf I picked up from Ikea two years ago that had felt somewhat sturdy in the store, the shelves themselves were made of real(!) softwoods. It was $130, which felt extremely cheap, but worth a shot. The thing lasted 6 months, then summer came, with it's humidity, and the thing collapsed. Turns out having correctly designed supports is pretty important, who would've thought, certainty not a multi-billion dollar furniture company. So, for having to spend 3 hours assembling it myself, I got to watch it implode when the weather turned, lovely! The sad reality is that this is the standard for household goods in many American homes.
The experience of buying that utter garbage bookshelf prompted me to start building a workshop of my own and to start woodworking again. I had gotten a burning desire to build high quality and long lasting products for people. I've been working on small projects when time permits, mostly drink coasters and cutting boards so far, but I'm actively planning out bigger pieces of furniture as future projects. I've given a couple items away as gifts, and even made a few sales over on etsy[0]. Compared to writing software, which is lucky if it lives for more than few years, I've gotten a massive sense of satisfaction in knowing that for each product I build, it has a good shot at completely outliving the owner.
Aside from home furniture and some home electronics, much of the discarded once-use garbage seems to be plastic packaging of items.
