Gotta say when I was doing alright for myself I liked getting nice furniture. Nothing sucks more than buying cheap stuff for instance I got a table that cost me 200 bucks once, supposedly made of "asian hardwood" yeah that was a joke. Freaking corner of the table snapped off when I put something heavy on it one time. I got an awesome desk from 2modern.com that cost me 750 bucks but worth every penny, thing is built like a tank and cool modern design. I really like Eames stuff but that is damn expensive. Best purchase I ever made in my life was 1000 bucks for a leather couch with recliner on each end, oh man that was comfortable but I had to leave it with my friend when i moved in part to pay him for helping me move. Good furniture is a good investment, enough said.
