Anything that separates you from the ground. So a bed, shoes, your health..
:cries in American healthcare:
I can't even afford the cheap shit!
Tires
Floors, carpets, stairs, your feet, a bicycle, maybe even your car, dirt, gotta invest in good walkable dirt, uhhh, what else here... socks, probably chairs, ladders, flights, if you're flying always invest a lot in it, uhhhh. yeah probably some other stuff.
I dunno I guess the point of my joke is that I think this is one of those heuristics, or like, general expressions, that ends up taking longer to say than what it actually means. "invest in your shoes and bed" takes longer to say than "invest in anything that keeps you off the ground".
Isn't dirt a synonym for ground?
I'll add ladders to this list. You don't want a ladder to fail you when you're at its top.
Chair and tires too.
