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.

Logitech G502 for all the programmable buttons. I’m left handed and use a drawing tablet for work and having all my hotkeys accessible on my right hand keeps my work flow consistent.

It's been about 8 years since I got mine and I'll probably just get another one when it breaks, amazing mouse.

Fellow G502 enthusiast!! My old Proteus Core has taken a huge beating over the years and it still works perfectly fine. I still use it whenever I'm traveling/working outside of my home.

Currently using the Lightspeed variant and honestly the build quality feels really different, not sure if they started using different switches for the left/right clicks. Mine started double-clicking after a year in but the switches look easy to replace. Still a worthy purchase though.

Good to know about the Lightspeed, I'll have to see if I can find another Proteus spectrum once it croaks. The beating it's taken over the years is insane. Workhorse through uni, daily driver back when I was a bit more of a gamer, and now the resident mouse at my recording studio, seeing daily love. Still no issues with anything haha, would look brand new if the bottom wasn't worn smooth.
