Here are some of my favorite household objects that have improved my life. I’ll add more as I think about them.

1. Yamasaki sink drying rack. You’d be surprised how nice it is to just quickly wash a dish without having to towel dry it
2. Despite the name, these disposable slippers last a while. I have worn a pair for a couple months and they’re as good as new still. I like the type from ikea - you can buy individual pairs for like $3. They’re basically the same as these though.
3. Wireless charger - any type - will change your life if you keep it at your work desk.
4. Never pay for batteries again. Not that big a deal unless you use a lot of batteries - e.g. in an Xbox controller
5. I never shave or buy razors. I just use a beard trimmer and have 3 day stubble at all times (make sure it has 10+ length settings and is specifically for facial hair)
6. This thing keeps my cat fed so I don’t have to
7. I wash my hair daily because I use a lot of gel (I work in corporate finance lol). Not only is the best shampoo and conditioner I’ve used, as it cleans without over drying, but it’s cheap and i use it for a body wash too. (It’s not your typical 3 in 1 I promise!!!)
8. This is a good lunch box and it looks like a classic brown paper bag. It makes it fun to pack a lunch in the morning, which is helpful for actually sticking to the habit. And it’s insulated pretty well.
9. If you’re like me and you use a mouse 10+ hours per day, it’s worth getting a good one.

If you buy the mx master 3, it will be the only mouse you’ll ever want to use. The thumb scroll feature is amazing for excel users.
10. These memo pads are the size of a passport (I.e. Can fit in your pocket for a trip to the grocery store) and have a nice quality paper. They make staying organized for daily to-dos fun.
11. Vaer watches. Their Swiss divers can be more expensive - approaching $1,000 - but their quartz watches are cheap (~$100 with discount code on their website) while still being waterproof, with scratch resistant sapphire crustal, and are american assembled. Good tool watches.
12. These are great cuz you can give a bunch to your dog but they’re tiny. The dog doesn’t care - they just know they’re getting a treat.
13. These sunglasses are prescription and are like $100 with insurance. I use my HSA to buy a pair every couple years. Prescription sunglasses are clutch.
14. These bracelets look cool, sure, but I also use them to help me not forget stuff
15. Honestly goes without saying. These are life changing (in the sense that everyday life is made more convenient by these airpods).
16. Tell your dentist you want to bleach your teeth. Pay the ~$200 to get the trays made. Then the bleach is relatively affordable after that. Boom - you’ll always have movie star white teeth.
17. SPF moisturizer with retinol. A trifecta of skin maintenance. You will look like Paul Rudd if you use this stuff, in that you won’t age. I’ve been using it since I was like 20 years old. Your skin will thank you!
18. Redkin work hard. Nothing else keeps my unruly hair in place! It wears in with your hairs oils throughout the day but still keeps a very strong shape and hold. Nothing else like it.
19. Pepero.

Basically Korean pocky. Tastes exactly the same, but about half the price in America. You can find it at any Asian market store.
20. Not exactly the cheapest way to consume coffee, but not expensive either. Basically the cheapest way to get an immediate, decent tasting double espresso as soon as you wake up. I drink one daily.
21. Hear me out. Without being coupled with harmful toxins, nicotine is actually pretty good for you! https://www.ecigarettedirect.co.uk/ashtray-blog/2014/11/10-benefits-of-nicotine.html
22. This Home Depot homer box is like $7 and it’s a normal, fully functional tool box.
23. Auto lock tape measure - super clutch. If you’ve never used auto lock, you’re missing out!!!’
