15 Items I Wish I Bought Sooner

March 27, 2025
My new collection of wood hangers inspired today’s video. I finally ditched the plastic and wish I had done this sooner. It makes a huge difference.

Some things I have now have brought me much satisfaction, and I wonder how I lived without them. Unfortunately, you can’t go back in time; you can only look and move forward. That said, I want to talk about some items I wish I had bought sooner.

How did I live without these?

  1. Wooden hangers. They are much more mature.
  2. Semi-custom suits. Buy a suit and have it tailored properly for your body. It’s night and day because it fits better and looks fantastic.
  3. Custom white dress shirt. Going custom makes all the difference in the world rather than buying off the rack.
  4. Urinal. Yes, I am flexing my new urinal. I built my dream home and did something crazy. I cannot express the amazing joy and satisfaction I get from it.
  5. Sauna. Mine is a real sauna, not an infrared one. It heats up to about 200°, and I absolutely love getting a good sweat.
  6. House water filtration system. I drink over a gallon a day, I wish I had bought it sooner. It was under $1,000, and it makes a huge difference.
  7. Home security system. You need a security system that you can monitor through your phone because it will give you peace of mind. It’s also highly recommended before something terrible happens.
  8. Fraud protection or credit monitoring. I was violated a few times before starting with fraud protection and credit monitoring. You need a monitor that scans the dark web for your personal information. Click Aura for a 14-day free trial to see how much of your information is on the dark web.
  9. Proper mattress. Investing in a higher-quality mattress will help you sleep better and make your body feel amazing.
  10. Upgraded bedding. Every adult should invest in higher-quality sheets and pillowcases.
  11. Rolex watch. When you wear a proper luxury timepiece, you feel better about yourself. You also automatically gain more respect from other people.
  12. Electra one-speed bike. Getting outside into the fresh air is amazing.
  13. Firearm. I love going shooting. I wish I had bought one sooner and learned to safely and correctly use it, but the people I grew up with were anti-guns. I sleep better at night, knowing I can defend myself if a break-in happens.
  14. Investing. I don’t own any cryptocurrency, but in hindsight, it’s 20/20.  I was also late to the game with the stock market, as I was too scared. I wish I had squirreled away earlier in my teens or twenties.
  15. Real estate. Over the years it appreciates, and I wish I had taken a more active role in buying assets earlier. I love real estate and investing in it.
