From clothing and accessories to EDC and grooming gear, and even some life-changing books, all of these products are pretty cheap and totally worth your money.

    🧍🏻My Sizes
    I'm 5'6" with shoes on and about 125 lbs after dinner. I have a 35" chest; I usually wear XS tops and 28x28 pants (or 28x30 cuffed).
    My best suit jacket size is 34 Short, but even 34S needs alterations (mostly shortening of the sleeves and jacket), so my best-fitting suits are custom.

    The biggest change in my life has been an electric shaver. I am bald, and it was such a chore to shave my head everyday. Now I can shave my face and head in three minutes as part of a standard shower with no cleanup. It's a game changer.

      I’m curious too. My beard destroys razors and the electric shavers I’ve tried too fast. I’ve gone to double edge and they seem to be the best for me but went back to just having a beard and a buzz cut every three weeks. I use a razor for details only. It would be nice to have another option.

      I used to use Braun, but Braun stopped to deliver a really close shave maybe 15 years ago.
      Panasonic did deliver. But blades and foils for my Panasonic are getting harder to buy, and more experience, year by year.
      I'm a bit special. My skin can tolerate a beard only for a limited time. I'm 56 years old now, and "beard" is now a week, max, before I need to shave.
      Naturally, my skin hates shaving. Shaving every day is...well, not as bad as not shaving for ten days, but it's not really fun either. Luckily, shaving once or twice a week looks reasonably good on me. As long as I wear t-shirts, formal shirts are a different story.
      What I liked about the latest Braun I tried was that my skin had no problems with the shaving process. It was just that I couldn't wear a formal shirt with a necktie without getting mad. The shave just wasn't close enough.
      Probably less of an issue today; at 56 years of age, people now often respect me without a necktie.

    I'd recommend against plastic water bottles and instead go for glass or stainless steel. Even BPA-free bottles basically replaced BPA with other, less studied chemicals that will end up leaching into the water and end up in your body. Add to that all the recent news on microplastics found in our bodies and in the environment, I think the best idea is just to avoid plastic whenever there are practical alternatives available.

    Can confirm that a good quality umbrella is a worthwhile investment. After years of buying 3 or 4 cheap dollar store umbrellas every winter, I bought a brand name one about 10 years ago for around $25. I still have that umbrella to this day and it's never let me down.

    Instead of purchasing longer charging cables, I recommend using an extension board. Charging cables carry DC current, which is more susceptible to loss than AC, leading to slower charging. To mitigate this, the cable would need to be thicker and have lower resistance. Furthermore, replacing an extension board is much more cost-effective than replacing a charger. An added benefit is if the extension board includes surge protection.

    Speaking about saving money - just one point about the sponsor of this video. In some countries, in mcluding where I live, you can get very good in-person (or via zoom) therapy services for less than BetterHelp charges. Therapy takes time, so an extra $10 per session ends up making a big difference if you do it for years.
    No hate on them, maybe for US standards their prices are competitive, but I'm sure in many countries you'll be better off just visiting a therapist in person.

    Great list! Very sensible and well thought out.
    I was always skeptible of "premium" boxers until I mistakenly bought a $13 pair that were on sale for $8. Since then I've been converted. But as you said, just because a pair of boxers exceeds $10 doesn't mean they're great for everyone. 32Degrees Mesh Boxers is my favorite budget premium brand. Separate is another one I've recently become fond of.
    Contigo is a superb budget brand for water bottles AND travel coffee mugs. I also love how easy they are to clean/wash.
    I like the idea of a mini pocket knife on a keychain, but having been stopped by over zealous TSA agents, I quickly abandoned this as I've had to part ways with these many knives on more than one occasion even after showing that the blade was much less than 2-inches.

    I would put a hair dryer as my biggest upgrade. I used to towel dry and my fine hair just looks flat and pretty much become a fringe after 5 minutes (they're just limply draping my forehead).

    Can I just say, Philips is the way to go for electric toothbrushes. I've had two Braun ones in the past and both failed after a few years. The Philips is still going strong after 6 and is much better quality in the first place. The cleaning is better and it needs charging way less often. I also use the pickers, but I feel bad every time I do because it's so much disposable plastic.

      I was recently researching this as I retired my Oral-B some months ago just prior to a vacation. I'm not sure how many years I had it; probably close to 10. I wound up getting the Sonicare 4100 this time around to try something new, though both seem to be well-loved by their respective camps.
      I didn't love it from the start.... which was my fault. It has a 'sensitive' setting, which apparently is its default setting. Fortunately it was either the second or third time using it I hit the power button during brushing and the normal setting kicked in. That sucker vibrates your skull. Which is really the main difference: Oral-B for more spinning with a round head; Sonicare for a vibrating, somewhat traditional albeit smaller oval head.

    Contigo water bottle is durable. Seeing my father-in-law using it daily and the hook broke and pushed on until the some mechanism finally gave up due to age, after like 5+ years.
    However, I don't like that one can't throughly clean evey inch of the botyle as you can't dismantle all parts for brushing. I came across the laboratory analysis on water bottle and mould growth by CNA Insider titled 'Is you reusable water bottle a hotbed for harmful bacteria & mould? "
    The other recommendation you have is good.

    I hate stretchy belts. Stretch prevents a belt from doing its job. Haven't found underwear at the price point of Tommy John that comes close to Tommy John. Best and easiest place to get matching wood hangers on the cheap is usually Ikea. Added bonus is they're the retailers most likely to still have the same type of hangers available 5 or 10 years later. Your mileage may vary. Use only as directed.

    A few thoughts:
    1) Would not recommend BetterHelp. I understand the convenience and cost, but their business practices have not been kosher. Psychology Today has a huge network of psychotherapists for literally every need, and though you may pay more, it's worth it. Speaking as the brother of a psychotherapist and someone who's been in therapy for many years.
    2) I understand what you're saying about Contigo--but my toddler was able to destroy my Contigo, and so far my Hydroflasks are standing strong. So I'll stick with Hydroflask.
    3) People, please don't put supima cotton tees in the dryer. You'll shorten their lifespan exponentially. I find the Airism shirts are better from Uniqlo, anyway.
    4) 100% on good socks and underwear. Unless you're doing extremely physically demanding labour, paying a bit more upfront for comfort, sweat-wicking, durability is so much better. Not to mention most of the good brands of each have dependable warranties.

    ThermoFlask is much better than Contigo! 40 oz two packs usually go for around $30 on Costco. BPA free and keep your drinks warm or cold. Been using mine for 5 years already, and it's still going strong. Ive taken that son of a gun to many hikes and desert trips, and dropped it countless times and still does the same it did when I first bought it.

    Pleased to say I’ve got a few of these. Best one is probably a night light. We bought a box of 2 off Amazon, they are circular and have that circle light effect. We mainly bought them because we have an en suite bathroom and it means we don’t have to find our phones in the middle of the night, or switch on the big light if we visit the bathroom!
    Just a caution with long chargers. They are usually unofficial as I don’t think Apple sell any longer than 2m (not in the UK market anyway) which would be fine but we bought a pack of 3 that were something like 3m or 4m. Loved them for a while but one stopped working completely and another almost caught fire as my wife was using it! Needless to say we binned the remaining one 🤔🤨
    I use an electric shaver but mostly just for the bits I’ve missed after wet shaving. I finish off with the electric. I hate shaving anyway so tend to try and string it out as long as possible but I only have to yawn and I grow stubble.
