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.

My Italian five-ply stainless steel frying pan was a game changer for me. Mountains may crumble, but that pan will be with me forever and making cooking in a pan an absolute joy.
Can you recommend any brands? I could use something like that
Hi there! Not OP, but I’ll chime in! All-clad is my personal favorite (functional handle and indestructible), but they’re veeery expensive. I see them at thrift stores every once in a while, so that’s usually a great way to get them
Thanks! I'll keep an eye out for one
Just a word of advice about any/all non-cast-iron pans... never take a hot pan and run it under water. It may create a very satisfying blacksmith blast of steam effect, but it almost invariably results in the bottom of the pan warping to be not-quite-flat.
