What to get myself
Christmas is a nice thing. It's a bit of stress buying presents, and helping around the house - but you get out of the usual routine and get some days of pure joy and relaxation.So, we have a little bit of extra cash in the company, so I'm wondering what it makes sense to spend that on. If not saving it for a rainy day.
My laptop has been overheating randomly, and it's a bit slow. Which is an annoyance at times as it is my ultimate work tool. So, maybe getting a new, kick-ass laptop could be something. On the other hand, it's not that long since I bought it, so maybe use it for another 6-12 months and get some ROI. I wouldn't give it to anyone else, even for free, because it's badly worn. :)
Anyway, I've also been considering taking an MBA. It's expensive and time-consuming, but maybe also a good investment. If I can get the company to pay for the education and maybe some of the time spent studying, it could be a good thing. It's good for the company, it's good for me. But it will cost money.
Since my late teens I've not been big at school; I used to love it, then dreaded it, now I'm kind of motivated for it again. I see the value of adding to my "knowledge bank" the easy way, instead of trial-and-error (which is extremely valuable knowledge too, but maybe takes a while longer, not to mention might be more painful).
Oh well, we'll see. Times are-a-changin' :)
