I was on the atheist experience :)

He was to return before long, so people wouldn't need possessions and such. But he didn't, so following this advice long term is dumb and not even Christians do it.

And for sure, playing pass the parcel with money and possessions makes no sense either.

I think you missed my point that Jesus never even said that all his followers needed to give up their possessions in the first place. Before he ascended to heaven he said to "go and make disciples." He didn't say, "wait here and give away all your shit. I'll be just a few minutes... couple years max"
