Was gonna get a gym membership for the elliptical, but I found a $300 bike trainer for $15 at goodwill :)
and if you bought #Bitcoin with the money you saved, you are my legend.

Score. My wife found someone in our area giving away an exercise bike (older model but in good shape) on facebook marketplace about a year ago. All they wanted was someone to pick it up. So we snagged that. It has been great. I lift weights 4 times a week but am pretty lax on cardio other than an hour walk I take the dog on every day so I usually jump on the bike for a bit in the evening when I am watching sports. My wife uses it as well and my 12 year old uses it to warm up before doing his martial arts training. So we have gotten a ton of use out of it. Now if it breaks down I will have to buy a new one because we have gotten so used to having one.

Heck yea! If I had the space, I'd be building a home gym first. Your exp sounds like mine. I found an entire rock band set on the side of the road once. And over time I've found a lot of nice stuff: 2 bikes, an atari, a box of foreign money including euros, my dining room table, tablets from uber..... All from give away piles or on the side of the road.
