Back when the economy took it's first dump I stopped buying stocks and started buying things that I could enjoy owning, touching and using rather than watching declining numbers in an account somewhere upstream. And preferably things that would hold their value and appreciate somewhat since nothing else was.
So I focused on metals: guns, ammo and Oakley X Metals, starting innocently enough. I had a couple pair of SPY GT aluminums that I liked then saw a pair of Oakley X Metal XX 24K's... A little pricey I thought but I figured that I would treat myself to one pair of really nice sunglasses so I bought them. As I learned more about them and Oakley valuations, I picked up a pair here and a pair there. Over time I've wound up where I am.
Ekin95 put his sneaks out there and Motegi contributed some watches so I'll contribute and accessorize with some Oaks. I hope that you enjoy them!
