So the idea of “buy it for life” is to buy items that are durable and last for a long time, things you could buy once and have your whole life, which can save money and be good for the environment

What are some of the top items you recommend for this?

    A used steel case or Herman miller chair. (Unless you can afford to buy new) Instead of a godawful PU leather spine shattering gaming chair.

    The chairs may not last a lifetime but are very durable and will help your spine last your lifetime.

        Even more reason to buy used. The CEO might be a cunt, but that doesn’t change whether it’s good for your body.

        The point is that a chair designed for ergonomics of sitting at a desk all day will do you much better than one designed to look like it belongs in a racecar.

        That advice stands whether that’s Haworth, Steel case, Herman miller, or any other serious office chair brand.
