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.

        This sound ridiculous but vitra chairs are just so good.

        I was invited to a meeting in a goverment facility where all chairs have been vitra. They look like normal chairs. Within the first coffee break I had to flip my chair over to check for the manufacturer and model (EA 118).

        Since then I am seeking such a chair - in used condition. There is an entire niche of firms renovating used ones.

        Didn’t find mine yet but I will. You really just have to experience such a chair.
