14 Most Useful Purchases
About this video
McGoff reviews his most frequently used everyday items and gear across several categories, including bags, electronics, office equipment, watches, and activewear. He explains why each item has become indispensable to him, discussing their practical features, durability, and how they fit into his daily life and work routine.
Key takeaways
- McGoff argues that smaller, well-designed everyday carry items like the Key Unity titanium clip and TomT cross body bag solve practical problems better than bulkier alternatives
- McGoff recommends prioritizing durability and longevity in gear purchases, noting that his 5-year-old Steelcase chair and 2019 Under Armour shorts outperform newer, more expensive competitors
- McGoff advocates for investing in tools that support personal passions and hobbies—like his Roland electric drum kit—even when expensive, as they provide lasting value and fulfillment beyond pure utility
