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.

    I bought a mobile AC unit that renders my apartment survivable during summers. Prior to it, I’d have all the windows open and it would still reach 35-40 degrees C when the sun was at it’s highest point, now I’ll keep it at around 21 degrees and love life.

        Oh yeah they all need that, sorry for the slow response. They generate more heat than cold, so a tube to vent out the hot gasses is required. I got myself a Electrolux confort 6000. You can buy a mesh window frame type thing to insulate around the tube poking out without letting the heat back in.
