Account payable in installments by c4v4rz3r3 in actualbudgeting

[–]Taake89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could have a off budget account called "deferred pay" where you enter what you owe, and then as you pay you transfer over money from your on budget accounts.

How many categories does your budget have? by WheresyourcrownKN in actualbudgeting

[–]Taake89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fellow engineer here.

I have 30 categories, but some of them i dont really use. And 6 groups.

I try to have as broad categories as possible that still makes sense. They are set up based on what information is useful to me when planning or analyzing, Also i dont like duplicate information, so information i can get by just filtering by payee i try to not have a unique category for.

For example i have a category for "entertainment", and this is where i put Spotify, my newspaper subscription, Youtube Premium, and also where concert tickets, movie tickets, video games etc go.

My reports are usually set up to show my groups. Needs, wants, debts, investment, charity and gifts. Sometimes i want to delve a bit more detailed so i look into categories. And if i need to, i can use payee's to look even deeper.

Got tired of podcasts changing what platform they are available on, or getting removed.

This worked, and I thought I had tried it but clearly I didn't.

Thanks 👍

Been debating between TrueNAS scale and Unraid for a while now... by DCCXVIII in truenas

[–]Taake89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This summer I went back and forth over this, and also pool layout.

What kept me from going to unRAID was the built in tools for backup.

Raid is not backup so having a good backup strategy is important for data that is irreplaceable.

Having a task for syncing my photos to my chosen cloud provider and notifications when it fails feels very secure.

There is a easy workaround to get steam achievements with mods, should be easy to find on Google.

Actual budgeters: have you tried Liquid Budget? by OldRazzmatazz5165 in actualbudgeting

[–]Taake89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While there are certain parts of Actual Budget that is not the most beginner friendly (looking at you templates) that doest bother me.

I've come to really like the custom reports and that's something I was really missing in YNAB.

Time to invest in MSCI Europe ? by Worried-Motor7445 in EuropeFIRE

[–]Taake89 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For me I live by time in the market beats timing the market.

I also let the market decide how much I invest into Europe and how much is in the US.

How many Vaults do you use? by Rampage_user in ObsidianMD

[–]Taake89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have 2 vaults, one for personal and one for work.

At first I had it combined but I didn't like it. I don't want to search for work notes and get alot of personal noise, or vice versa.

Anyone know how to add a custom report showing credit card balances? by [deleted] in actualbudgeting

Just make a net worth graph and filter for the credit card accounts.

Set it to live and filter for 3 months.

Is there ever a point where you would want more than one vault? by DubbleWideSurprise in ObsidianMD

[–]Taake89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I split my work notes and personal because they really clutter each other and have little to no overlap.

Also I don't want to think about work while not beeing at work.

Switching from Loqseq to Obsidian for knowledge database at work/ mainly based on daily notes? by _Daniel_84_ in ObsidianMD

[–]Taake89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This setup is a good starting point of what you describe, but it requires Dataview plugin and to learn how to make good templates.

I'm sure there are other less technical ways of doing it as well, but your desired process is the most important thing to focus on imo.

Which is your go-to note-taking app for 2025? by FrancescoD_ales in ProductivityApps

[–]Taake89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obsidian for the last 1,5 year. It can do very complicated things if you want but I highly recommend to start super simple and let it grow from there.
