What would you do with extra income beyond requirements?
What would you do with extra income beyond requirements? - Lemmy.World
I am about to begin receiving a benefit to the tune of an extra $2k per month that I don’t have a need for. I’m fortunate enough that all my needs are met financially and this is truly bonus income. If it didn’t exist, my life wouldn’t change significantly, and it’s not enough to quit my job. Trying to get others thoughts on what would be good uses of this money that would benefit me and my family. Thoughts: - ALL_IN_VTSAX - hit FIRE goal earlier than planned - kiddo’s college fund - hit funding goal earlier than planned - do fun things - vacation fund, memories with family - fund hobbies - buy things I don’t need but “lower-guilt” use of spare funds Probably a combination of all of the above, but interested to hear the thoughts of others.
What are your hobbies?
What are your hobbies? - Lemmy.World
I’ve been stuck in the work, recharge, repeat cycle for about a decade now. I’m looking to get back into hobbies and activities to enjoy my free time and possibly meet other folks. I’ve heard you should have 3 types of hobbies: something to keep you fit, something to keep you creative, and something that can make some money. I’ve considered gym/triathlon (fitness) and woodworking (creative/income). What are your hobbies? Anything you recommend I try out?

Self-hosted or personal email solutions?
Self-hosted or personal email solutions? - Lemmy.World
I have a unique name, think John Doe, and I’m hoping to create a unique and “professional” looking email account like [email protected] [[email protected]] or [email protected] [[email protected]]. Since my name is common, all reasonable permutations are taken. I was considering purchasing a domain with something unique, then making personal family email accounts for [email protected] [[email protected]] [email protected] [[email protected]] etc. Consider that I’m starting from scratch (I am). Is there a preferred domain registrar, are GoDaddy or NameCheap good enough? Are there prebuilt services I can just point my domain to or do I need to spin up a VPS and install my own services? Are there concerns tying my accounts to a service that might go under or are some “too big to fail”? I can expand what hangs off the domain later, but for now I just need a way to make my own email addresses and use them with the relative ease of Gmail or others. Thanks in advance!!
Dry January
Dry January - Lemmy.World
Noticed today in the daily check-in that someone stumbled into the community and committed to not drinking today. Pretty cool! Are we able to drum something up to encourage a larger participation in a Dry January across the fediverse? I’m not sure how to spread the word, but I’ve always been a fan of pairing new years resolutions with sober curiosity. I’d certainly be motivated to actively participate.
