If you're asking, you made the wrong decision.
>>
The question is why did you buy all these things? Do you use them regularly?
>>
You should invest in audiophile quality headset and speaker system. With massive cables made of pure gold for the quality. Without that you have basically thrown money down the toilet.
>>
>>1268441
He did, but only if he doesn't make the most of it. It's purely philosophical with some of the things he bought, it depends on his attitude. I "invested" in a gaming PC and while I was depressed I couldn't care less about it. When I came out of it, it gave me so much joy(still does), that I couldn't believe my luck. And no, it's not worth selling them to strangers.

you can get a better spec'd laptop than the mbp for half the price

the camera and projector are maybe ok

tablet, lmao are you a pro artist?

all in all you sound like hipster trash

Yikes. Consumer electronics depreciate to nearly ZERO in like months.

What a waste of good ole cash.

>Fitbit
Fatass.

No one that's in shape wears a Fitbit.
>>
>>1268437
Cool stuff, bro. I have cool stuff too. It makes me happy.
>>

>muh specs
I dont own an apple but it annoys me when fags throw shit around like that. Macs interface is really user friendly. Works seamlessly with iphone itunes and ipad. And more resistant to malware and spyware. Not to mention customer service is 100x better for apple products. Some people like those things

I wear a fitbit and guarantee i could outlift anyone here. My cardio is terrible however some of you skellys might beat me in distance
>>
>>1268437
are you trolling?
literally why would you ever buy a macbook? you can get a refurbished thinkpad with the same specs for $250.
if you really need osx (the only reason i can imagine, is that you need to compile through xcode) buy a mac mini for $500


you are spending on worthless status symbols that are making you poor
>>
>>1268721
wtf is a fitbit? nobody serious about fitness and lifting would purchase anything else other than a gym membership and more meat at the grocery store. not even protein bars and crap

from a biz point of view, supplements and fitness equipments are pure garbage investments. all you need is: meat & vegetables, bar + plates, dumbells, and a pull up / dip bars
>>
>>1268835
also steroids and clenbuterol are worth every penny
>>
>>1268835
Its a heartrate monitor and smart watch. I use it when i run to keep track of heart rate distance and time
>>
>>1268717
Paying 10x more for a logo and your bullshit reasons is a poor financial decision. Nearly as poor as buying a trendy overpriced watch that provides you with nothing but useless information.
>>
>>1268864
As i said i dont own a mac im just annoyed by elitist pc fags. Also heartrate is important to make training more effecient. As well as distance and time to make sure youre consistently pushing yourself. You wouldnt know this because youre a cheeto dusted lard of shit sitting in front of a 1800 gaming rig criticizing what other people spend their money on
>>
>>1268809
refurb pc: lasts 1-2 years
mac: lasts 4 at least

but we're comparing apples to oranges here. pun intended. windows fucking sucks to use. you know that, of course, but you won't switch on principle.
>>
>>1268451
Can't forget the gold hdmi cables. Those will boos productivity 100%

He asked for criticism, and measuring heart rate is as easy as counting and looking at a clock. After a reasonably short period you will get a feel for where your ranges are and won't need to do either. It does not require an expensive gadget.

So take your little manlet rage back to /fit/, they have a "tfw no gf" thread I'm sure you should be posting in.
>>
>>1268897
>carrying a clock around while running
Wow brilliant fucking idea. Except clocks are clunky. If only i could shrink that information. And holding something would be cumbersome. Perhaps if there was a way to attach it to me. Like on my arm.
>spending money on "useless" things
I could apply that logic to literally everything. Point is sometimes people spend money on things to make life easier. Like a laptop. Or a watch. Or how you buy hostess cakes by the case because they dont always charge up the motor scooters at the winn dixie and you dont want to make two trips
>>
>>1268908

Wear a normal fucking watch instead of a "would you like to know how many steps I took today or how furiously I beat off to furry porn last night" overpriced hipster marketing trap.

The point is there are cheaper options which produce the same results and the only reason people buy this shit in the first place is because it's well marketed.
>>
>>1268437

Yes, a waste.

All of those things are shit.
Quality unnecessary stuff is fine, grand even, but buy expensive shit? That's a waste.
>>
>>1268924
And walking is cheaper than owning a car. But i like to buy stuff that makes my life easier. Are you sitting in a plain white cube eating peanut butter with your hands and pissing in a bucket? Because if not youre wasting money on "marketing traps"
>>
>>1268948
I'm sitting in a house I built, on land I own, listening to the frogs out my window, in the pond I dug.

I put my money into things which return value to me.

Do whatever you fucking like with your money.
>>
>>1268877
my desktop is a mac mini. I use it to compile ios apps and make money off good goys like you. I prefer windows
