Is furniture an investment?
Some furniture is. You buy Stickley Furniture at Gallery Furniture, you take care of it, 25, 50 years later, got great odds it's going to become a priceless antique.
Furniture is also an investment in yourself.
You buy a great Tempur-Pedic mattress with an adjustable base, it's a lot of money, maybe $5,000, $6,000, maybe $10,000. Say you spend $10,000 on a great adjustable mattress for you and your spouse. That mattress will last 10 years, so that's $1,000 a year.
So you and your spouse are sleeping in that mattress at $3 a night, $1.50 a night for a third of your life for better health, better longevity, better acuity, better mood, more energy. I think that's a great investment.
Furniture is a great investment in your quality of life.
