ICE MAKER
Infinite ice whenever you want, uh, yes, add to cart
Even KINGS never knew such luxury…
A maid. I really don’t like cleaning. I’m not very good at it. I miss a lot of things. I don’t have the attention span, etc. I do it because I have to. I don’t want to live in swallow but gosh, it would be nice to have somebody cleaning my house for me even if it’s just once a month.
A proper (CNC) milling machine and lathe, like ones you can work hardened steel with. Lots of better things you could buy for that money, but with a mill and lathe i could make those things for even more money!
Edit: oh and a proper garage/hobby room to put them in
Eggs
A large property in the woods with a river running through it. I can literally setup my own mini power generation source if the stream is powerful enough. So I get to at least be partly off-grid.
Unconditional love and support
Get a dog, you big lovable jerk.
I love the conditional love of my kibby. Conditional love is great when the conditions are easy to fulfill.
1: feed me
2: water me
3: scoop my poops
4: love me, but not too much
That’s not a luxury, it’s free.
free time
or any money at all, i can only seem to get one of the two
A house with a yard in a city with good subway access
What color do you want your dragon?
Staten Island NYC
Staten island is the only part of New York City without subway access.
there is no direct rail link between the SIR and the New York City Subway system
Damn. Yeah
Kitty holsters. A kitten in a holster on each side. Ready for anything as long as i got my kitty holsters
I fucking love this
How about a hammock chest holster, so you’re always snuggling?
A full, refreshing night of sleep every night.
Air travel where I’m treated better than a livestock transport.
Luxury hack: just add money /s
This is an efficient method, yes, but it’s doable without money: If you fly enough you rack up enough bonus points to upgrade for free.
Source: Done it plenty of times. If the flight is four hours or more, that’s when I consider spending my points.
A house
I have a house. But it’s old and decaying. I want a well-engineered, modern house with great interior design and lots of space. I want to be able to put the couch in the center of the room instead of putting it up against a wall.
I see the confusion here. Your mixing well engineered with modern.
I see houses all the time that are brand new construction or within the last 10 to 15 years perhaps all the way back to 08. The materials used are not what they used to be, regulations have gotten tighter and to cut costs contractors are building lesser quality homes. Everything creaks, is loose, cheap particle board and cheap plywood.
There is very little pride in craftsmanship in Contrustion, Contractor Work. Raw materials are of weaker quality and higher cost. If anyone is looking for quality housing look for pre 2008 homes. While this isn’t a blanket statement, it covers 80 percent or more of modern housing that isn’t concrete.
No I’m not confused about that. I have seen the problems you talk about. That’s why I felt the need to qualify modern with “well engineered”.
My house is 1982 and my couch is in the center of the room hell yeah
there is a pocket star trek novel i can’t find a physical copy for less than 100 US dollars called “a stitch in time”. for some reason they won’t reprint it (they released an audiobook recently but i don’t personally like reading books that are not physical paper books).
Yea I bought it on a whim when it came out cause I love DS9 and Garak. I’ve seen them as high as 200. Its crazy.
Yeah, my copy is in decent condition, and I’ve had offers of 200 for it.
Alas, I’m a giant geek and refuse to sell it
TIL those are out of print and valuable. Most of mine were ex-library copies bought for 50¢ each. I guess I should have kept getting them more diligently, since it sounds like now it would be difficult for me to complete my collection.
Keep an eye out at thrift shops-- I’ve seen huge tranches of Star Trek novels.
Upvoted just because I’ve been meaning to look up the definition of tranche and you reminded me. Thank you. :)
Rule of Acquisition #3: Never spend more on an acquisition than you have to
Ugh me too!
Having all my teeth.
“Luxury Bones”
Watches, sadly. There some beautiful pieces, and somehow the industry figured out how to ask for a house’s worth of money for some of them
Some magnificent pieces can be had for “only” used cars prices.
The one i have and love the most originally would have cost as much as my first car 15 years ago :D
I got this for $70 online. It’s from china and probably isn’t well made but I absolutely love watching the little wheel go back and forth
it’s sooo pretty!
(I messed it up the 2nd timezone when daylight savings time happened lol)
It is indeed pretty! :) Is it mechanical?
For 70 bucks, though, i would be hesitant. I just can’t imagine finding a mechanic to fix it if need be, or what kind of shortcuts they had to make to create it.
Is that a moonphase display on the top there though?
A well designed back yard with a gardener to help keep it nice and tidy. I fucking love flowers and landscaping, but I just can’t do it myself.
