Have your own business(es) and / or be a skilled professional. I know tons of guys who are doctors, dentists, accountants lawyers, realtors, mortgage brokers, electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs, pilots, contractors, property developers, tech executives, etc., who earn 400k-1m+ . The trades are surprisingly profitable if you're a savvy businessman.
The best money I’ll never see again…

SPs of course. Of particular are the duo sessions - Kimora + Habin is top notch ... chef's kiss. Nana + Pepper is another one.
Non SP wise, bought outright Honda Accord Coupe when they still made them. Top trim with the V6. It was a fun daily driver and miss it dearly.
Luxury watch. Bought a Grand Seiko SLGA019 also called Lake Suwa. Bought it on a trip to Japan plus a way to commemorate a milestone. It's my daily pretty much, a way to clock in and out work so to speak. Looking at its dial is mesmerizing and helps with the long work hours.

Man the first time I made a load of money my first upgrade was my bed and beddings. Huge life improvement.
Ah the best money.
So best meaning whatever the value, whatever the item or event maybe even life altering.
For me, the F20 MPMan mp3 player, 1998. First commercial device, Eiger the manufacturer. Couple that with Napster and ALL that wonderful music much of which I had forgotten. The sheer joy of it overrode all the issues of modem speed downloads, and futzing with a parallel port interface to put music on the 64MB Smart Card, yes 64MB.
But then there was also Leah the Blown Gasket Girl - pretty sure I covered her mortgage for the few years I saw her regularly.

1. Concert: Iron Maiden concert in 2008-Somewhere Back in Time tour, which was easily the best show I've seen.
2. Vacation: Toronto vacation last year-Good times with friends, seeing sights, and some great food as well.
3. Local SP: A knockout named Carly-Winnipeggers know her from The Studio, or Diamonds/Eden. Never had a bad time with her, and always made me feel like the king of the world.

Moving to a different city. Cost a ton of money, time and stress but worth every minute that I've been here.
Health care. One day you get old and having access to better health care means a lot more than it did before. So yes I pay for one of those 'private' clinics where I get an hour with an actual doctor.
A good sound system. I dropped down that rabbit hole and spent 20 years trying out different sound systems and greatly enjoyed it. Sold it all when I moved and bought a Naim Muso-2 ... sounds good enough for now.

1. Like all of you, my time spent with providers. Some stand-outs were my Gabriola trip with a woman who unfortunately has now retired and a date night to dark table with another special woman.
2. Traveling. I've been on some incredible trips and met some interesting people, and incredible women from around the world.
3. Motorsports. This is easily my favourite hobby. I love sports cars and driving fast. Taking them to the track is a safe way to scratch that itch. Definitely not cheap, but I'll never give it up.
I'm planning a bucket list trip to combine all three. I'll be shipping one of my track cars to Europe and driving at several tracks while I and it are there. Of course I'll enjoy the company of some local women while I'm there too. I was inspired by an American YouTuber that recently did the same with his NSX.
