So I've been lurking around this forum for a while now, but haven't made any notable contributions. So I figured it's time to share some things that have helped me or I have found useful in some ways.

I won't be discussing what my business is or how much I make from that. Just sharing some things that have provided general value for myself.

NOTE: Some of the things might overlap with what might have already been discussed or mentioned on this forum. As I don't have the time to go over every single post ever made I'll just go ahead and post anyway :)
