1K on luxury office chair? What kind of office were you working in? I'm a software dev and every company I've worked at had those horribly uncomfortable mesh chairs. You can find low priced - if not entirely free - decent office chairs off Craigslist. There's entire wharehouses full of office equipment priced less than $100 that will have the same ergonomic effect if not better than an average office in my experience.

Ye, I literally picked up my home-office chair for free, it was surplus at a school and destined to be thrown out. Sure, it's pretty worn, but the stuffing hasn't even STARTED to crumble to the floor yet, many good years left in this baby :)
FAANG. The chairs at the office were super good. This is partly why I'm part of the pro WFO crowd - because then I don't need to spend thousands on getting a similar quality setup to the office.
