I made two larger purchases this year that have had significant use and brought me enjoyment:

- A good stereo (Wharfedale Linton/NAD Amp) - A simracing setup (Fanatec DD/8020 Rig/Triples)

I listen to music probably 60+ hours a month and watch a movie every couple days, and it's a lot nicer not using headphones or a soundbar.

After using an entry-level sim wheel and pedals, I decided it would be cheaper and almost as fun to build a good rig compared to going to the track. Not to mention that I can race throughout the winter and in cars I otherwise wouldn't be able to experience.
