What are some of the best purchases of your life?
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.

Sleep Number mattress. Yes it’s gimmicky and expensive, but the ability to adjust softness/firmness according to how my back feels is priceless
iPad. A long time ago when I was an IT drone the boss dropped a 1st gen on our desks and said, “set it up and figure it out, you’ll be supporting it.” 2 weeks later I told my husband he was off the hook for Christmas, I wanted one of these. It’s been my most used entertainment tech since through multiple generations
I second the sleep number bed. Ours is 17 years old and I’d say it feels like new but it actually feels better since we added a plushy foam pillow top. It’s as soft or firm as you want it. Love it.
