I made a habit of checking out Goodwill for boardgames. Best one yet was King of Tokyo for maybe $10. Like new condition.

You can pirate books. Use Calibre and build your library. I have over 2000 books. Doesn’t take much storage either.

Few reasons. One, to help me advance in my career. Two, because I like the idea of open source. Three, tech business are kind of acting evil for money, so I’m going back to being self reliant and piracy.
