Absolutely amazing. I am really trying to avoid the consumerism trap as much as possible. I only buy things that make my life better for at least a year.
I haven't been as active lately, found myself scrolling the chats too much, but I did meet some great people and it had some content included in the price too, which was really valuable
Here are my absolute best purchases of 2024:
- A good pair of sports shoes
- The book Slow Productivity, by Cal Newport
- My gym membership
- My climbing gym membership
- My desk setup (ergonomic mouse and keyboard plus a good screen)
- 2-day trip to Copenhagen
- 5-day trip to Rome with a city pass to see all the cool stuff
- 14-day trip to Havana to see my family and friends
They are all investments in quality of life.
Thanks Mandy, this type of post is very touching.
I need to read Cal Newport!
I love all the assets you've accumulated
You will absolutely dig it

I love this policy. My policy is: if it's not on discount, or if it's double the price, would I still want it?
very true, its always temporary pleasure. I actually get more satisfaction from throwing things away lol.
me too! throwing things away is the best
feels like cleansing lol
Investing in learning and development is so important, my friends often wonder why I spend thousands on it, but I wish I could spend even more
Curious what have you spent thousands on?
Online courses have been the most expensive:
- Starting an online business
- Developing focus and digital minimalism
- Productivity
- Learning methods
- SQL performance (didn't finish this one)
I spend hundreds on books but not all are educational
I spent a few hundred joining an online community for side hustles as well
That's all I can remember right now
solid! how's the side hustle community? Worth it?

Thanks, will do, you too
