Stupid question to an old post. My wife will bring up my donating at the end of rattling off the ten hundred other times I’ve given money to some tin hatter cause. In a funny way and I’m embellishing of course.
But it’s adding to a long list of failed causes at this point haha…
I think you have laid this out in detail before and are always very transparent. Are we just aiming to keep hovering above our expenses with a small buffer? I guess in a way I’ve just been watching and waiting for the bad times and then seeing if I could save the day lol.
Probably not the best strategy as it could be a dead horse if left too late. No one could or should expect you to commit to anything forever.
I guess my question is, would having more balance do anything for you? Help decision making? you’re peace of mind even?
My wife might suggest it buys you a shinier computer at the end of this hehehe…
Haha - the money isn’t a concern for me, my historic stupidity from the better half’s point of view is a different story.
Non-technical me has been following along with the nerd updates and I see we’re still figuring out plans and tech (last time I looked anyway). Have you done any preliminary estimates on what a year of this bad boy might cost? Not sure if you should just limit that to server but up to you of course…
Like, is 200 a lot? 500? A grand?

Sorry, and yeah hard to predict absolutely. But no growth vs current trend + buffer maybe… I don’t know, might be way too early even to ballpark?
Upon further reflection, if people see a kitty they may not donate which creates an issue down the track for you maybe… there’s probably some research somewhere on this stuff haha…
I guess the less rocking of the boat the better. I’ll keep watching the balance and if something fails or you need injection, please post and if there’s any reservation about putting your hand out just hit me up or something… I don’t know 🤷🏻♂️
That is interesting to think about and reflect on…
I don’t know what I’d think seeing that, that person is really passionate about it, that person has more money than sense, don’t need to worry about donating anymore etc…
Might do some hobby reading over the weekend for me hehe…
I’ve kind of landed at a “small donations to keep it ticking and if something ever crashes or needs upgrading be available to inject a bit of a lump sum” is the best approach. Or, until we know what a year will cost and then revisit.
After an entity reaches an annual cap (say $5m profit), 95c of every dollar should be taxed
For one month of each year, traffic should have to go in reverse

As in backwards
