Question What purchase of $100 or less has most positively impacted your life in the last six months? Money & investment
Yes. Well, one of them I’m holding in my hand right now. And my daughter turned me onto these. She’s now 28. Computer glasses, which I got on Amazon. I don’t know. They were less than $20.
