I have to explain something about my title above before sharing what this is all about. There are lots of investments that have been awesome: my family, faith, work, etc. So, when I share this little story, this is simple fun stuff! In other words, it was the only thing that came to mind when I thought of what I would write about.

Four years ago, I had not been reintroduced to Joli yet (not till January). Anyways, in the fall of 2003, I went to Supercuts (as usual) to get my monthly haircut. I was one of those single suckers who did not have a care in this world, so I was easy prey for the stylist to sell me expensive hair products every few months. Sometimes I was able to pat myself on the back and strongly resist the monthly temptation of buying another cool labeled hair gel!  On this day however, I was sold on buying a combo pack of some VERY expensive shampoo and conditioner. The conditioner bottle was around $35!

To make a long story short, I made sure I used the products sparingly and make every drop count! After Joli and I got married, she began cutting my hair: saving me hundreds annual on products and haircuts!

This past week marks then end of my one bottle of the expensive conditioner I bought for men too. It took me 4 years for two reasons: 1) It was expensive, 2) men don’t use conditioner often too!

So…I thought that taking 4 years to use one bottle of a hair product was one of the best investments I ever made. It was sad to drop it into the trash can this week. It has become somewhat of an antique piece in my shower!

Not sure why I am writing about it…just felt like it I guess!
