That is not a house or a car or a house necessity like air conditioners, refrigerators, or other appliances, etc. It would be boring if everyone just had to say their furnace or something. Furniture, electronics, TVs and things like that count though.
It’s clear what expensive means. But by valuable, meaning something’s monetary value, not just personal value. [Reply]
A few years ago I bought my wife a real fur coat. It is designed like an Alaska Native fur kuspuk wit several types of fur. That was a healthy five figures. nothing beats it on cold, windy days.
My vehicles would probably count. I’ve got a 2019 Tacoma that was not cheap. Snowmachine wasn’t cheap. Snowmachine was a bit more than the fur coat. Hot tub was about the same price as the snow machine. Got it installed and all the electronics going in the last couple of weeks. Right now it’s pretty hot* so we are lowering the temp to about 80 in the hot tub and using it to cool down. But I am looking forward to the winter when I can go sit in it during a snow storm.
Those would probably be my most expensive items aside from house, etc.
* for those who want to know, that would be high 70s. We hit 80 today. I can count on one hand the years we hit 80 here. And I know it’s not nearly as hot as KS or TX or AZ, but: 1) we aren’t used to it at all. An average summer day is low 60s; 2) we have no air conditioning; 3) even if the temp isn’t high, the sun shines on our house until midnight so we have an extra 4ish hours of direct sunlight that just heats our house. So it’s nice that the hot tub can be adjusted to be a ‘cool tub’. [Reply]

5 figures for a coat? I hope for your sake you’re counting that down to the penny. :-) [Reply]
