Both my degrees, other industry specific qualifications in various areas that I've done over the last 15+ years.
All pricey but more than paid for many times over. |

"Good shoes, winter coats, anything that's not fast fashion.
Good shoes are an investment
They so are, I have a pair of knee high boots that are over 12 years old. I've only had to re heal them "
My yard broom, it is 30 years old and just like new. It has only had 10 new heads and 4 handles. |

My hiking boots. 12 years old, they’ve seen the summits of many mountains, walked many many miles. Never once leaked, or had any sort of failure.
Also, my personal trainer/coach. He’s cost me many Dinari, but in conjunction with his work, and my efforts, I’m still alive. So that’s paid 100fold. |

"Solar panels.
Really? 
With payback being something between 12-26 years they must have been installed some time ago to have repaid themselves "Many" times over....."
I haven’t got them. It’s just something that can pay for itself. |

Seriously? Why would anyone bother at that rate? Far better to invest the money in something that gives a good return and just pay for the leccy. Unless you enjoy BTU wanking. |

"A bespoke tailored suit
100%
I’ve never been able to afford one but I did inherit one that fits me well. It was made in 1966 to a fairly conservative cut, and still looks like new."
Providing you always stay the same dimensions. The littlest change in proportions in any direction and it just doesn't look as sharp. |

The condom I bought 50 odd years ago, cost me every last penny of my pocket money at the time, but with careful washing and regular lubricating it has seen me through my whole sex life.
It still has plenty of life left in it,so in time, I will pass it on to my grand son as a family heirloom |
