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 have a duro and a tough solar. I have worn the tough solar every single day since 2018 and have never had am issue. I've had people comment on how nice the duro looks.
For my money, you can not go wrong with Casio. Indestructible. Classic. Jeans and a T-shirt. Can't go wrong.

Yeah Casios are pretty dope. I've become a fan! I just need a square and a bluetooth casioak (GA-B2100)... for now.

In about ten years, you will probably need to replace the rechargeable battery in that Casio. I have a couple Tough Solars from the early 2000's. It's a little more expensive than a regular watch battery, but who cares with a lifespan like that. But who knows, battery tech is better now. Might last 20 years!
