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.

    Brother laser printers are fantastic and one of the only brands that doesn’t seem to constantly try to nickel and dime you all the time. The printers last ages too and you aren’t throwing them out once a year like HP crap.

    It’s going to be a sad day when capitalism finally catches up with Brother, they get bought out and enshitified.

      I’ve printed over 12,000 pages on my one brother laser printer! Only had to replace the drum once ($30); and I would buy my off brand toner in a 2 pack for $20! The other brother laser (scanner/fax/self-feeding) is currently at 6,000 pages! That one I’ve only had to replace the toner a few times. The most expensive thing is the paper but I have a deal with a few stores around here that I’ll buy their torn open reams for $1 each.

      Yeah I had an HP and that mf would burn through a $40 cart in about 100 pages. Brother’s the boss.
