On the flip side, at 40, money is much less of a factor. I’ve spent a small fortune on tinker projects as I’ve learned about hardware and EE. I’m slowly building up to it, but one future goal is to do an classic car EV conversion with my son in a few years. Then I’ll give it to him as his first car.

Also, I buy a ton of tools. Tools are also great to put on your Christmas list when there’s nothing else you want. I’m actually outgrowing a 3 car garage and will be building a workshop building soon.
