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 hate simping for the government, but damn if TSA pre-check ain’t amazing. I can’t fly without it now, makes everything so much less stressful.

    I breeze past the 20-30 minute regular security line and walk right up to the pre-check. I haven’t had to wait more than 5-7 minutes at most, even at huge busy airports like O’Hare or SeaTac.

      Remember when this was the standard and not a service you had to pay for?
