What are some of the best purchases of your life? - Lemmy.world

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.

My 512GB Steam Deck, easily. I've used it almost every day for going on a year now, and the novelty of playing things like Witcher 3, or Mass Effect, or a fully modded Skyrim anywhere I want still hasn't worn off.
A Steam Deck is of of my best purchases, I don't feel trapped in front of a console or PC. I can game outside, in the living room, on vacation, and on the toilet. I've completed more games this year already than I have in years!
