If I had $1500 to spend on something right now, I would buy a '49 Plymouth.

The shorter ones seem to be 58". I'd recommend one that can handle 3-way bulb.

I love lamps.. I have 6 in my living room, not counting the light of my ceiling fan. Only one turned at a time, unless it's a really dark day.

Actually another big company haha

Hello, Microsoft employee!

Thanks.

Not from Walmart.

Try your middle class stores with clothes. Or online from a good source.

My company also has these stipulations on our wellness benefit. If you're just getting it reimbursed, they really don't have a way to know if you returned or resold what you got. Personal choice on whether or not to keep the spirit of it, though.

I used to wear dickies in high-school. If they still fit me I think they would be in pretty good shape 15 years down the road lol... I've not bought any dickies since I've grown up but would absolutely buy them if I needed to have a certain look or something.

I bought a used one for $900, used it for a year, then sold it for $1100, didn't need the box for a more-than-healthy resale.

I'm looking for one that will go next to my bed, so I would like it to be about the same height/taller than the bed's headboard. I think that's about 4 and a half or 5 feet?

I generally agree with this statement. Been keeping an eye out for used older models but the deal was too good to pass up so I just went for it. Smdh, should’ve just waited lol

I recommend SAS also. They specialize in unusual sizes, so make sure you get the right width. That really helps with comfort and making them last longer.

Ebike

Regular bike, because you can never have too many

Jewelry

A really high quality luxury item that I might never otherwise buy for myself (e.g. designer bag or shoes that I love)

​

A ticket somewhere I want to hike - bucket list location (e.g. Paris, etc.)

​

A year+ gym membership

​

Road bike and stationary trainer

If you're looking at the concept2, consider a WaterRower S4 or the Ergatta upgrade, they are far quieter and feel sturdier to me. It's very meditative to hear the water lapping while rowing.

Join a co-op pottery studio before investing in a wheel. Unless you already have a kiln at home that you haven't mentioned, a wheel won't be very practical.

An exercise device but I read your post too fast and realized you are looking for yourself, not asking if we could just get anything. They are great strength training devices. But just cost a fortune and pilates lessons are pricey also. So having the equipment at home would be amazing. But as you can see, very pricey for the legit deal

What is it!? Never head of it!

Omg a pilates reformer! So expensive, but if I had the money to blow I would get one

Massage sessions at the most highly rated massage clinic in your area. If you get a 5 or 10 pack, you'll usually get a discount and will be able to try some different therapists until you find one you like.

Determine what height you prefer. They're not all the same height. My personal preference is one that, when I'm sitting down next to it, I can't see the whole bulb exposed while looking up at it.

Ok, good perspective. I have something that I wanted to commercialize that requires a wheel. But, I guess I can cross that bridge when I come to it. Actually making it at a pottery studio to test the market before investing in my own machine makes more sense.

Awesome. Investing in sleep is worth it. Can you tell me more? I heard about it on podcasts but I wasn’t sure if it’s actually legit or not.

Unless you already have experience with throwing pottery on a wheel, I wouldn't recommend getting that. I thought I'd love it, but I found it really physically uncomfortable to use the wheel. I still love making pottery, I just do it by hand, no wheel needed. If you haven't set up a pottery studio at home, there's a long list of non-wheel stuff that would be good for that.

But you can change the efficiency by modifying airflow.

Sleep Chilli (or other brand) matress pad cooler. Its like heated floors but for your bed, and you can control the temperature. Life changing for me, my sleep is better

Nice suggestions! yeah. I previously got some BIFL Nick’s boots made in the Pacific Northwest near me. They are the last boots I’ll ever have to buy probably. Incredibly happy with them. I use my insurance for eyeglasses. Thankfully browsed this subreddit and got an all metal bed frame that is going to last and the mattress still has 10 years in it.

Why? A pottery wheel is a tool - if you’re into pottery you want something that will last and help you throw better. I think it makes sense to buy BIFL tools. But, in my case I was hoping to find a pottery wheel for cheaper and possibly get an exercise bike.

And yes, the 3rd one is a very full featured synthesizer/keyboard.
