Technical direction

A goal of mine is to maintain my own organic revenue stream. Currently, I have earned funds migrating local businesses of monthly service contracts to LDI managed web properties. This kind of service does not contribute towards my long term goalsMy ability to work on newer projects is currently limited due to:
  • Data transfer
    • I've consolidated a lot of data from multiple systems into Window's bitlocker encrypted setup.
      • I'm not able to access that data from other operating systems
      • I am highly dependent on Windows, which has very random restart policies. 
    • I have procured multiple computing devices, each with specialized intent.
      • Some devices are rarely utilized due to file transfer limitations, and most are not utilized to full effectiveness.
    • My current ability to achieve results is heavily reliant on an unorganized and unreliable windows setup.
  • Direction
    • I currently have minimal direction on personal projects with almost no concrete plan and documentation.
To help achieve and complete some of the goals that I have targeted, I want to purchase a used server and auxiliary components.
  • This is not a rash decision because:
    • These purchases will be expensed to LDI.
    • Learning is always expensable.
      • I will donate personal funding to LDI to offset excess expenses.
