How Much Have I Spent So Far?

Transparency time

Being a tech enthusiast/gamer is expensive and you find yourself on TikTok for hours scrolling through reviews and opinions on products and still don’t find the right one or leave feeling overwhelmed!

Here’s a couple tips when shopping for your setup!

The things you can afford are what’s best for you! This is because until you actually start creating/streaming/vlogging etc you won’t know if you actually enjoy it. So who wants to spend thousands just to find out it’s not for you?

Buy Used! Don’t be afraid to shop Amazon used or warehouse products! Most of them come in great condition with free returns! I’ve saved anywhere from 20-40% off items since doing this!

Don’t rush it! Get what you can and slowly build, this way you don’t miss out on any sales and also gives yourself some grace instead of the usual fomo!

Drop some of your setups whether current or dreams in the comments! I need some inspiration 💡

When investing in tech, it's crucial to consider both your budget and your needs. Start by assessing what you actually require for your activities like streaming or gaming. This prevents unnecessary purchases. Next, explore used options on platforms like Amazon to find great deals—often 20-40% cheaper than new products. Additionally, don't rush your purchases; take your time to wait for sales and discounts, which can significantly save you money. Consider starting with essential items rather than expensive setups. For instance, focus on: - A quality camera like the Logitech 1080p Stream Cam priced at around $90 for streaming clarity. - An affordable monitor, such as a 100hz LG Monitor for approximately $113. - Unique speakers like the Robot Speaker which costs around $149, that can enhance your streaming experience. - The Divoom Timesgate, a budget-friendly addition for about $110, that can liven up your workspace. - For optimal typing experience, the Yunzii x75 Keyboard is available for about $80. This approach helps you to build a personalized tech setup that works for you without breaking the bank while providing great functionality.
