Dollar for Dollar, What is Some of the Best Money You've Ever Spent on Something?

[HotNixon36]

dollar for dollar, i would also have to say internet access.

the internet has provided me with thousands in savings on purchases, convenience (online banking is the shit! ), info and so much more!

Yep, if you have internet, you can live in a cave and still stay entertained. The internet will make your last days in a Nursing or rest home much easier.

Condoms, abortions, life insurance policies on family, riding lawn mower, and passport.

Yeah,I will agree with the WD media player,and of course a BGOL membership,but....

I really caught lightning in a bottle with my home purchase back in 2000.

The market had caught fire in my Boston neighborhood,so in 5 years we sold our home there for more than 3x what we paid for it.

With that,we were able to buy our present home in an area that was not on fire,yet.Also the house was on the market because of a messy divorce...so we got it for below market value.

All in all it was a steal....
Which at the closing,the very angry wife accused us of...it was a very strange closing.

Even in this down time,houses in our area,half the size of mine are costing more.

Our running joke is,if we were trying to buy this house today,we could not afford it.

Rest in Peace, Brother.

I'm happy to hear that bro. Where did you go to college?

Maddd late responding to this, but went to HIU (The real HU!) for undergrad, and did two graduate degrees: one at an Ivy League school, the other at a local school in the area I'm currently located in: Undergrad and one grad school was completely paid for, only had to take out loans for one of the schools (guess which one?!?,) but the plan is to pay those back within the next 3-4 years.

Also, I'm a female

The lawyer plan on my job at $20/per month. I have used that for so many things. Saved a ton of money and hassles.

Pops bought himself one 2 months ago and loves it. He’s tried out all types of meals with it. Bought his gf one recently too.

- Used Toyota for $9k.

It'll be an 11yo car come 2011.

Bought it 7.5 years ago.

Kept that car until Aug. of 2019. Completely hassle-free. Only minor issue it ever had was with the MAF sensor. Otherwise it ran fine. Sold it for $1500 or so.

No bullshit my wife's engagement ring. But not cause I love the bitch that much, naaa. Its because Helzberg had a special going on where they gave you a free pair of Sennheiser PXC 550s when you spent however much. This was back in......... 2017 I think. Best headphones I ever had. I had heard of them before, but never considered their products. Price was always an issue for a brand without much marketing. I swear by them now. Bought the Momentum 2 wireless earbuds for my phone like a year ago.
