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.

    Samsung Odyssey+. It’s a VR headset, and although almost anything post-2017 would be a better option due to its poor tracking, I still consider it one of my best purchases because it got me back into VR for cheap (friend sold it to me for $250) after the Oculus Rift kickstarter years before when I couldn’t afford it.

    Also Ryzen 7 5800X3D. This CPU is probably gonna stay as my main chip for at least the next 5 or so years, it’s really a beast.
