A spin-clean record washer is a good investment if you build a large collection.

Also suggest you look into high quality inner sleeves (mobile fidelity).

As far as what to buy, I'd suggest focusing on albums you love, that way you actually listen to them.

Just buy low expense index funds

My Asus zenbook, purchased in 2015, is still going strong. They're pretty affordable and at least from my experience have held up well. I'm pretty sure you can run Linux on them too.

But most people are likely passively watching them and walking away with a brief "maybe I shouldn't be so shitty to other people" message.

Could you help clarify this for my understanding? I thought the lower phase of Communism (socialism) would be an unequal society (to each according to their contribution).

I'm asking out of genuine curiosity, I was just explaining socialism in these terms to someone the other week, so would like to be corrected if I'm wrong.

I can't off the top of my head recall where I read "to each according to their contribution" but I think i've seen it in both Marx and Lenin's writings.

Appreciate it.
