For me it has to be:
- Helix mattress ($1,217). Sleep is great.
- Home gym power cage & weights (~$1,000). Look good, feel good, get strong.
- Netgear Nighthawk AXE7800 ($339). No more random, annoying internet disconnects/slowness.
- 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)
- 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.
Guild Wars 2 game for PC. 10.000 hours in (yes, I’m addicted!), and still rocking. Thousands of players, new expansion next month, and the base game plus the 3 first expansions only cost 33€, no subscription fee.
This is the first thing I thought of too when I saw the thread. Despite splurging on the special edition when it came out, plus getting pre-order deluxe versions of every expac, I have gotten a ludicrous amount of value from it over the past decade. It’s a social platform and a nice escape and been so worth the money. For the amount of time I’ve played, the dollar to hour ratio is probably a fraction of a cent.
Agreed! It’s fantastic value for money if you enjoy the gameplay. Being able to fire up the game and drop back in at any point with the same gear and no re-subbing fee is top tier.
I have been playing since GW1 in 2005. I really love the series and the amount of value I have got out of them, including friendships, its incredible. The aesthethic of the world has always been awesome.
