hoarded
Kept too much
Hoarded is the past tense of hoard, meaning to accumulate and store away, often secretly or excessively.
People hoard money, supplies, or possessions beyond what they need: She had hoarded canned goods in the basement for years.
The word carries a sense of anxious, protective gathering—less neutral than "saved" or "stockpiled."
