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.
Dana Designs Arcflex Terraplane backpack purchased in 1994 at Teton Mountaineering in Jackson Wyoming for $400. I’ve since used it to travel the world and apart from having had to replace its foam back-liner and a buckle, it is still perfectly sound in every way.
Dana Designs doesn’t exist anymore, but the guy and organization behind them is still alive and well and making handmade backpacks in Bozeman Montana under the name “Mystery Ranch.”
You can get a Mystery Ranch Arcflex Terraplane that’s basically the same thing as the original Dana Arcflex, only made with newer, better materials and technology.
