- Organized the final remaining prep items before interviews start! Moved from Google Keep to here, for posts in the next few days.
- Making lists of monthly costs for awareness:
- $1075 Rent
- $450 Food
- $150 Car Insurance
- $80 Cell Phone
- $40 Utilities
- $40 Internet
- $20 Gas
- $15 Amex
- $5 Mobile app subscriptions (Spotify, Calm, etc)
- Almost $2000/month for basics (no bars, no shopping, no trips). Right now, I have a few more out-of-pocket expenses that an employer would usually cover ($250 for health insurance and $40 for gym).
- Historically, I pay much more than this (about double!) due to restaurants, Amazon, and more. I’ll certainly be a bit more observant.
- About half of my Ally limit sales have been met and fulfilled. Transferred 5k from my investment account to BOA. As I reinvest this money later, I will do so through Robinhood instead of Ally.
- Set my Mint account back up. I will start regularly checking this as the aggregator. Got familiar with it again. Feels good.
- Added https://raw.githubusercontent.com/synthead/mint-adfree/master/mint-adfree.txt to the uBlock filter list so the Mint dashboard is adfree and skips all the cards I don’t wanna see.
- Scrubbed my Chrome account and removed the majority of saved passwords (SpaceX, old sites, college accounts).
- Watched Candyman, an old (92) horror classic I had never seen.
- Smoked ribs. Incredible.
