I am trying to capture costs for starting into homelab/selfhosting.

VPNs, search engines, absolutely everything and anything.

      What!! Unless your VPN is hooked up through a NASA telescope and transmits your data through space and time 70 bucks per year is a SCAMMM!!! $70 every two/three years, that makes more sense.

        I live in the deep South and don’t want my information out there. Mullvad has done me right for years, I see no reason to change. Many other VPN’s are vulnerable and can leak your information to your ISP.

    Domain for $8 a year and 300Mbps fiber for $45 a month which snake ass AT&T keeps increasing in 5 dollar increments, so thank you for reminding me to call Spectrum for a quote so I can then call AT&T and harass them into giving me the correct price for another year.

    ISP: $75/month for symmetrical 1Gbit fiber and unlimited data. This is the biggest expense. All other options are 1-25 Mbps up with cable or dsl and most are just as expensive.

    VPSs: around $40/month, though I’m planning to cut back a bit as I’m moving some stuff local.

    2 Domains: < $30/year

    The rest is purchased with no future subscription costs. This covers everything except for the security cams that I need to migrate off of corporate services one of these days.
