This is the year I can buy a good TV (any other things) for the first time in my life. Been on long term sick leave for 15 years but recently got increased economical support, including a big retroative payment from may till this month. Just ordered a Steam Deck, something I’ve been dreaming of having for years, some nice headphones and waiting till black friday to get a nice TV. Groceries here in Sweden haven’t increased that much, my monthly cost is about the same as before but I’ve just had to replace some products for the few things that have gotten noticeably more expensive, really no difference to complain about.
Congratulations.

They wouldn’t be able to afford the tech if they couldn’t.
I know lots of people who are undernourished with a big TV.
You can buy a 60" 4K TV for like 200 bucks now. That’s less than a grocery store trip for many people.
Happy for you, enjoy the fuck out of it!

Enjoy it, my friend. In a similar situation. Had money for the last year for the first time in my life. It is amazing, in some ways, how weird it is to buy something like a laptop new.
