What are some of the best purchases of your life?

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.

  • tempur mattress (got them on the used market, for 20% of the cost)
  • a key organizer that looks like a swiss army knife
  • a slim wallet that also unfolds
  • a good pair of audiophile headphones
  • a dishwasher

Would get a key organizer if it wasn't for car keyfob. We had to replace dishwasher recently. Hand washing dishes sucks.
