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 “NEXUS” pass. Joint prescreen/vetting between USA/Canada. Cost less than $100 and beyond the initial online application I had to take a trip to border/customs for an in person interview (essentially identity confirmation).

    I travel between BC and Washington regularly enough and the wait in line for a NEXUS crossing is measured in minutes, not hours. It also gives you the security pass/upgrade for any Canadian or US airport.
