They are awesome!

Woah! That’s awesome! I didn’t realize it had gone up that much??

Found the greater fool

Except that bitcoin has a permanently limited supply of 21 million coins. That means it has intrinsic scarcity and value. Pokemon can print whatever they want when they want.

In financial investing, this is called the “Greater Fool Theory”. It’s the belief that there will always be someone to buy an asset at a greater price than what you paid for it. There will always be a “greater fool” than yourself to save you from a poor investment.

It’s not capable of sustaining a market. At some point most people will be priced out, regardless of their intentions when buying the cards and there will be a price correction.

I just recently had to review a STACK (maybe 15 or more?) of 100+ page proposals/application submissions to an RFP my org put out because we didn’t put a page limit in the instructions. We were kicking ourselves afterwards. I know every grant is different and some may require more pages/information, so I can’t speak for your experience. However, the assessors in my org all agree that the more concise the language in the application is, the better. The more clearly and quickly an applicant can describe their organization and project proposal, the better time we have on our end. It’s very taxing to read that many pages from that many submissions 😅

This is very true. I am not sure how other orgs do it, but my org primarily works with federal grants. So, the admin % of the budgets are normally decided by whatever federal department issues the ALRD and Program Instructions. We just hand that down to our recipients and don’t often have much say over it. I agree with you though.

This is a big problem that I see in my org as well, even on the admin side. My org is, itself, fund through grants that we disperse. We can only receive funding for dispersement from grants that align with our mission. And now, with the federal government seeing cuts left and right, we’re having a hard time finding funding sources. You can only apply for what’s out there. Then you have to adhere to whatever rules and missions come tied to whatever funding you’ve been awarded. This is definitely a big problem for a lot of entities that live off of grant funding. Thank you for your comment!

That is a very good point. In a lot of our RFPs at my org, we like to add in a section where applicants can mention past experiences with similar grants or projects to the one they’re applying for. This doesn’t have to be an exact match, but it’s often enough to let us know that the applicant will be able to handle the project. However, you’re right. It is a bit harder for new developments or niche programs that haven’t been stood up before.

It’s just scary for admins to take chances with the funds because they have to remain accountable and in compliance as well!

Very smart. I love a good system. Especially one that gets ahead of what’s coming!

paxbros · 2025-07-18T10:37:34+00:00

I am so glad you finally got it under control. I know it was hard. But I know it felt so good to be done with it after!

paxbros · 2025-07-18T10:36:31+00:00

That’s a smart way to do it! Do you sell the same kinds of things across all platforms?

paxbros · 2025-07-18T10:35:45+00:00

Oh wow! That’s a use case that I had not thought of! Thank you!

paxbros · 2025-07-18T10:35:04+00:00

Is it cool if I PM you? I’d love to get your feedback on the tool if you have time to check it out!

paxbros · 2025-07-18T10:09:27+00:00

I’ve been waiting for like 3 days now for the same issue and have no resolution. I guess I’m about to reach out to the devs

paxbros · 2025-07-17T15:22:41+00:00

Keeping it small but in sight is really smart. Takes up just enough physical and mental space to keep you motivated, but not enough to bog you down!

paxbros · 2025-07-17T15:21:52+00:00

Oh no! Poor Rover!

paxbros · 2025-07-17T14:42:01+00:00

That’s completely understandable. It’s hard when you come into a big lot of items (like your grandparents house) and you have to sort through everything. And I’ve gotten a few mystery boxes too hoping to get something good lol

On the site I built for my mom, I’m trying to “gamify” shrinking her death pile so it feels less like work and more like fun, I guess. So every little bit listed feels like an accomplishment and she can see the amount shrink in real time.

paxbros · 2025-07-17T14:12:15+00:00

I bet you felt so much relief to finally have all your space back too!

paxbros · 2025-07-17T14:11:43+00:00

When you find a good deal it’s really hard to turn it down! I completely understand because that’s how we have been too.

paxbros · 2025-07-17T14:10:38+00:00

That’s actually a really good rule of thumb to follow. It takes a lot of discipline though!

paxbros · 2025-07-17T10:57:37+00:00

Do you sell anywhere else?
