For me it has to be:
- Helix mattress ($1,217). Sleep is great.
- Home gym power cage & weights (~$1,000). Look good, feel good, get strong.
- Netgear Nighthawk AXE7800 ($339). No more random, annoying internet disconnects/slowness.
- Books ($0 @ library)
- “Ultralearning” - Scott Young (how to learn efficiently)
- “Enlightenment Now” - Steven Pinker (the world overall is improving)
- “The Bogleheads’ Guide to Investing” - Taylor Larimore (how to invest)
- PS5 ($500). So many great games like witcher 3, god of war, spiderman.
I’m searching for some more deep value purchases. Give me what you’ve got.
Laser eye surgery $3500 -getting rid of the glasses was a life changer, at work they fogged up all the time and got dirty, at home it was great to see my partner and they weren’t blurry during fun times.
CPAP $1100 - sleeping properly was literally a lifesaver. The amount of times I got home from work and couldn’t remember the 35 km commute was scary. Also helped me out of an abusive relationship.
Tiger 5 liter water heater $200 - always having as much hot water as I want is amazing for making tea or hot beverages. I keep it just below boiling all the time and use it multiple times a day even in summer. The 5 liter model is great because it is taller and even my 750ml thermos mug fits under it.
