I work in a large 5000+ software company and were honestly about 30-40% macs. An MBPr is a good investment - I figure my 3yo machine will easily retain about 35-50% of its value if resold.

Is that one of the ones that is old enough that it can actually be opened up and have components upgraded?

I've been hearing about used 2012 MBPs selling for more than they cost new.

Where? They go for $700 at the most on for sale forums.

That's an odd definition of an investment. My MBPr was definitely an expense, and I love it.

I suppose the enjoyment I have received from using it could be considered dividends of sorts, and so I could see calling it an investment from that perspective. But not financially.
