Gymnastic rings, straps (includes anchor kit), and I paid people to set it up. Probably the best money I've ever spent.

Kitchen stuff: a carbon steel wok, a Dutch oven and a bread form. Also an electric toothbrush.

But most of all: a fully automatic bean to cup coffee machine

Looked up Dutch Oven, didn't expect a cast iron pan :-D.

I'd chip in with a chefs knife (spurgled on a 60€ wasabi, feels like it'll outlast me) and a cheap knife sharpener.

Furniture of proportionate scale to my body.

To all you fellow deviations from the average height: look up the ratios of how your body is supposed to relate to chairs, tables, counters, and screens and search for ways to make that happen. These things are not supposed to cause you inevitable pain.

You can’t make everything perfect, especially if sharing spaces with people who don’t match your scale, but do what you can and it will make a huge difference.

Also this is good advice for the regular-sized, the problem is just less pervasive for them.

A Comma 3 driver assist system for my car. I drive a lot for work, and it's an absolute game changer for driving distance as an enhancement to the stock LKAS and ACC systems. Highway miles are dramatically less strain and effort, and it makes me more able to watch the flow of traffic and keep an eye out for hazards. Their tagline is that they're "making driving chill" and it's definitely the case as long as you have a fully compatible vehicle.
