Everything here was supposed to disappear. Banned subreddits, deleted communities, cancelled blogs — much of what is archived here survives nowhere else.
It stays free — no paywall, no account — for the next man who comes looking, the way it was free for you.
I pay for the servers, the storage and the bandwidth myself. If you want this record still standing in ten years, become one of the people who keeps it online.

You put that far better than I did. Spending habits and little luxuries often come to be viewed as "needs" and people have trouble giving them up. That is one of the most useful things I've ever figured out when it comes to handling my finances.
If I'm happy with what I've got. Don't upgrade. Once you do it's hard to go back. I watch a 10 year old 32" tv. It looks great to me. Meanwhile a buddy of mine just spent more money on a tv than I've ever paid for a car.
I drive an old car but I keep it up and it looks good and runs smooth. Sure anything built in the last 10 years will outrun it and probably get better mileage but the difference isn't enough to make upgrading worth it. Also it is thot repellent. No gold digger is going to target anyone driving a sedan from the previous century.
I do spend money, but I spend it on things that actually mean something to me. This has enabled me to get out of debt even after the divorce and get back on track for an early retirement.
I'm down to just a few more years in the rat race and I'll be free for the rest of my life, while I'm still young enough to enjoy it. That's better than $5 coffee and a $35k+ status symbol that depreciates like milk and doesn't get me back and forth to work any better than the one that is already paid off. Not spending that money buys me more freedom and an earlier retirement. I'm already at the point where I could take a shit on my bosses desk and walk out and survive if I had to.
That is real luxury right there.

Ive only made 54k a year and was ordered to pay 1k a month. For 1 child. That bitch started showing her true colors just 2 years later and got the CS reduced to $135. Here soon the CS will be reversed.
