I'm talking about buying an item, such as a gadget or something for a hobby or for the house... not financial assets that you buy to store value, such as Bitcoin, gold, or art. Or tools you buy to work with.

You don't need to share details like price or brand... just the name of the item.

My biggest purchase was a image projector that we bought with the idea of watching movies from bed...we have used maybe twice in a year...

What about you?, what have you bought that you consider was expensive??

My house 🏠

BTW, this should be in ~meta?

Your house is not a gadget :)

The post is in meta .

The post is in meta .

It shouldn't be. Have you read the description before posting this in this territory. I'm not complaining, just a suggestion. ~meta is where you talk about Stacker.news.

I know my house isn't a gadget but your title of the post could be "What's the most expensive gadget you've ever purchased?"

Wouldn't that be better? Why waste time in writing 3 or 4 paragraphs when a single sentence could do it?

reply

Agreed. This is probably better suited for ~AskSN

I spent 10k on building a home gym, and promptly tore my meniscus.

I can still do upper body, but need knee surgery now. /sigh.

reply

Oh man. Hope you get better and can enjoy your own gym soon!

I always wanted to learn how to build acoustic guitars, but as a hobby rather than being a professional. I purchased a band saw that I haven't used until now 😂

Hardware tools are a classic.

You think that you need a tool and that you will use it often...then, life happens.

reply

Exactly... act out of excitement and not with reason

At home, our latest best purchase has been a ⚽ ball for our daughter, she started practicing months ago and says she loves soccer. And since she has had that ball, it has been a magical situation, she has fun, she practices, she sets herself challenges and that has made her improve quite quickly in her soccer practices.

And apart from that, I would like to add that a good purchase considers that apart from being durable, it is something useful, that is, that you use it constantly. I was very surprised that you called your mentioned item your best purchase, and yet you have only used it a couple of times in a year...

Car, I guess.

My house.

Used only a few times...now days, not using it anymore.
