For me it has to be:

  1. Helix mattress ($1,217). Sleep is great.
  2. Home gym power cage & weights (~$1,000). Look good, feel good, get strong.
  3. Netgear Nighthawk AXE7800 ($339). No more random, annoying internet disconnects/slowness.
  4. 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)
  5. 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.

    I tried having a bidet a couple times, but I ended up having issues with certain delicate skin becoming cracked and bleeding. Not sure what the cause was, but no bidet for me.

        Adding water to your skin surprisingly can make it worse. Drinking water tends to help moisturize but washing removes oils and stuff from your skin which in excess can make it dry and cracked over time. If your skin is delicate enough then excessive washing may be a lower limit than you can handle with a bidet. And slathering lotion on your ass after you poop just seems to be a worse solution.
