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.

Good áss socks, life is too short to wear crappy socks

I have never heard of underwear being called ass socks.

Highly recommend Darn Tough socks from Vermont. Best socks I've ever worn, and they hold up really well.

I know it's practically a meme at this point to say so, but: same here! I've used their return-holey-socks-for-store-credit service twice now (carried mail; guaranteed sock killer) with zero problems and couldn't be happier. I make sure to buy pairs as gifts for friends to make sure they see new business, too.

Got any recommends? My socks are on the way out and the brand isn't around anymore so I need to start thinking of new places to look lol
