    1000€ (roughly $1600 CAD) would be a nice down payment on a decent cargo bike like the Yuba Mundo Lux.

    About like 10 of the must have flashlights or a few good customs. Or one fourth of some really extreme ones.

    A new practice basket. A new stack of practice putters. A cart. With plenty left over for me to get a few more backups for some of my favorite discs.

    All you need to start playing Standard, Pioneer and maybe Modern in Magic the Gathering. Or like maybe half a Legacy deck.

    In my other hobbies which are rebuilding with old lego by hand and imagination, baking and reading a grand will keep me good for a year. Or 5. Depends on motivation and how many free books I pick up.

      A few years ago I finally sold my assortment of still-sealed merch I was given during my time at WotC (Phrexia through Innistrad). It fetched almost $5k. Still, it’s hard to believe a grand won’t buy a thorougly awesome legacy deck. Never really was a player myself tho and I haven’t kept up with current prices at all, so I believe it.

    1L flasks, dimroth condenser, heating mantle, heating plate, materials to build an electric kiln, if i have anything left i’d use it on chemicals

    and i’m probably already overbudget, home chemistry is fucked price-wise, we’re lucky to have synthware for all our glassware needs but for equipment you either diy it or go broke (a good hotplate is ~500$ new, 200$ used in bad conditions)

        Ah! Same here… I just went 20 minutes really early in the morning 🤣

        The wind is good when you’re moving but as soon as you stop for a red light… you die…!

    Whilst my grow light is rather good, there are upgraded options I could take advantage of. For my small sized grow area I could try my hand at a small rDWC setup, a new light, and an automated system for persistently maintaining VPD (perhaps one of those ACFinity ones with the app, or a similar sort of thing).
