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 list is close to yours. Definitely a workout machine. Costco FTX inspire for $1200. Lot to drop but I feel better and as someone in his 40s, I have more money than time which is running out. I’m the youngest I’ll ever be from here on out so today is a good day to take advantage of health and fitness.

    A year ago we got a good mattress and it eliminated so many issues. Same with our couch

    I have an erearder but use the library for it

    I won’t buy Sony stuff anymore but the steam deck has been an amazing purchase. Same with retro handhelds (RG35XX, RG353m)
