Like why some apartments allow no tenants with pets. Living in an apartment building, some tenants around me absolutely fucking suck with owning pets. Allowing them to bark, wrestle and play loudly, letting them take dumps everywhere and not picking it up. People actually running with their pets with no leashes when leashes are required.
Yeah I side more with apartment offices that have balls to say no pets. Nobody wants the noise.
I didn’t understand the importance of quality and the true premium you pay for certain things. I often would buy the cheapest thing I could find to serve a certain function. After awhile, you find yourself replacing cheap things because they wear out quickly. Buying quality can mean paying a lot more, but it also usually means you don’t have to replace it much, if at all.
I’m a little on the flipside with this one. I’m figuring it out that some of the best things out there, aren’t usually the ones that cost a premium. It just boils down to what that something is and whether you want it’s best version. Like, some of the brand-names in stores aren’t usually some of the best that’s out there compared to generic brands. I know this from some of the review videos I’ve watched like Project Farm on YouTube.
I find this to be true with things like store brand foods but I’ve found the majority of the time if you buy something you need durability out of, you will regret buying the cheap shit
The tool method seems to be proven true. I’ve heard that you buy the cheapest tool until you get one that does the job for you. Like if the cheapest tool breaks on you, you move a step up above it until you’re comfortable with the value and quality of a tool that both does its job and lasts a long time.
You can apply that to many things.
I hadn’t heard about that. Only problem with that is once you buy several cheap tools you could’ve bought the most expensive option once.
Yeah, but that’s only really true for the things you use often, isn’t it? Sometimes you just need something that gets the work done and it’s okay if it takes a little more effort than using the premium one because you can’t justify spending that much for a one time use. Especially so if you need more than one specialty tool, because that adds up quickly.
Well yeah, it always depends. But in a scenario like the one described here where you’re repeatedly breaking and upgrading a tool, that sounds like a good example of that approach being more expensive 🤷♂️
Project Farm absolutely rips
I’m finding this on a lot of the “deals” my wife has been finding on the TikTok shop. Piece of junk falls apart, so it inevitably gets replaced with a more expensive one I didn’t really need in the first place.
Oh shit. She might be playing me.
