Have you ever thought about how much time you spend in bed? The only person that I know of that spends less than 4 hrs in bed is Donald Trump - so if you're not DT then you're like the rest of us.

You need to be tucked up for at least 8hrs a night to be able to function properly the next day and you also need a good bed.

Trust me, I know what you are thinking - spanking a wedge (I said a wedge not a wench - get your mind out of the gutter !) of money on something that you just sleep in is superfluous.

I don't even know what that word means but it sounds cool, actually it just looks cool because I also don't know how to pronounce it... anyway the dictionary says it means "serving no real purpose" which is what you'll be doing on a daily basis if you don't get yourself a decent bed.

It's an investment! Sure you'll be spending the money initially but think about it, every night you'll be taking back the cheese. (That's a little street lingo my friend for maximum return on investment)

When it comes to buying a bed, here are a few tips worth considering:

Shape:

Don't cut corners. Seriously, the only people with round beds are the rappers and B-Ball players that you see on MTV's Cribs.

Length:

If however you are a basketball player and after reading this article you agree that round beds belong in the 80's then length is probably something you should consider before buying a bed. Don't be scared to go long providing your room can accommodate it.

Space:

As mentioned above, you need to think about your room and whether it can accommodate a freak bed. Think about it, more than likely your bedroom isn't shaped like a hallway which is why it is incapable of absorbing the extra long bed you're about to buy. Respect the space, it's important.
