My PC, the amount of utility and fun I’ve gotten out of it made it well worth it, plus it’s custom built and like the basic bitch I am I added RGB everywhere.

 

1) Amazon Kindle Paperwhite- Not being weighed down by a literal bookshelf that can fit in my back pocket is all the value I need. I carry this almost everywhere I go. I have at least 8 books downloaded from this post. https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forums/reading-list-for-intellectual-ki…

2) Pilot G2 pens- easily the best utility-to-cost ratio of any common pen in my opinion.

3) iPhone- Pretty self explanatory

4) Investing in quality furniture early in your life will save you a lot of money over your lifetime.   

 

Just move it with you haha. Moving becomes less of a hassle if you're just moving your shit from point A to B as opposed to having to buy new furniture whenever you make a move

 

AirPods - I have the og, pro, and splurged $550 for the max. So great for podcasts, calls, listening to music. Seriously the best Apple product ever created. No need to buy the iPhone 12 Pro Max but if you don’t have AirPods you are missing out they are wonderful.

 

Interesting... I would have thought that the best product you ever bought was your SEX DUNGEON.

 

Honestly? My iPhone (in its various iterations) 

I struggle to think of something else more versatile, consistent, or essential to my life. 

It's not necessarily and apple fanboy thing either. I'm sure if I was a long time Android user my answer would be similar.

I agree on the product side with the Iphone - I love my AirPod Pro's as well, let me condense two (Sony over ear, Beats ear buds) into one awesome package. Also do not regret my Schwinn stationary bike, it's been a great purchase. 

Service wise? It's Amazon Prime and Spotify - I love both, and don't regret them. 

Experience wise - Heli Skiing. It's expensive, but if you love powder it's beyond worth it to do at least once. 

 

Garmin Fenix 5x plus Sapphire watch. The most durable, functional GPS smart watch I’ve ever had.

Purchased summer 2018.

Sometimes I run a chest strap HR monitor and Bluetooth headphones running off the watch - it’s great.

The Fenix 6 is out now - it looks highly recommended.

Also, getting a smart trainer for the bike to connect to Zwift is an amazing home experience. I have a Wahoo Kickr Core smart trainer (direct drive). 
 

First time I rode on Zwift, it was amazing! The Zwift races are lit too - so challenging. I used to Zwift race more often.

- Quality coffee pods 

- Tempur-pedic Pillow & topper (made a bad mattress purchase and didn't want to go balls deep for an entirely new bed)

- Scented candles (idk about you but after I make dumplings in my wok, that smell doesn't necessarily get me into the nighttime / sleeping mood - also it's a plus for the lady friends) 

- Quality recording speakers (I don't record, but enjoy playing music at a decent decibel on the weekends to decompress) 

- A couple of pistols as I enjoy shooting as a hobby / sport (when I can find and afford ammo)
