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.

    1. 2018 Tesla Model S used 12k pre-Elon going full Elon. ($45,725) was a huge purchase and most expensive car ever but gas savings for my 120 mile daily round trip to work saved me over $400/mo.
    2. 12ft trampoline. ($200). Kids love it, wife and I love it. Also shows me I’m getting old when random muscles tweak on me.
    3. Second hand rocking chair from early 1900s ($45). If you haven’t rocked in a chair that was made only for that purpose before it became wholly automated, you should. Can’t figure out if it’s the arc of the rockers or what but it’s more relaxing than the $279ea set of porch rockers we have.
