PHYSICAL
KEF LS50 Wireless II + KC62 Subwoofer. A "buy once cry once" splurge I don't regret. I enjoy music from this crispy high-fidelity set-up every day.
Shapton 1000 grit whetstone. Learning to sharpen is a fun and satisfying skill. Pair this "buy it for life" sharpening stone with any serious Chef's knife and you won't need any other blade in your kitchen for a looooong time.
Electric Mosquito Racket. Can't imagine a best way to spend $20. No more endless hunt, no mess on the walls. I won't say it's satisfying... but any fly or mosquito go "zap" instantly. This reference is reliable as, and the battery lasts forever.
DIGITAL
Sublime is an inspiration engine for ideas, a Pinterest for knowledge, and one of the most useful tool I came across in 2024. Wether you are a creative who would like more output, or you just need a "second brain with a soul", this is the best platform to save anything that matters.
The Way app. I got seduced by Henry Shukman's Zen and unique approach to meditation. You only have a single pathway to follow, and Henry is great and deep. I use to meditate with Sam Harris's Waking Up which is amazing too, but might feel overwhelming for some. If so, give The Way a go.
INVISIBLE
This reminder from Epictetus:
Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants.
