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.

    My first house. I got it for a song thirty years ago, bought it from a friend who had been renting me a room. It needed a lot of work and was in a city nobody wanted to live in. I rented a room to a friend, fixed it up and later my girlfriend/later wife moved in after he moved out. Yadda, yadda, yadda the neighborhood went upscale and now I rent it out. Now we live in the outer burbs in a house we got during the housing bubble bust fifteen years ago.
