I make apps

- Talk to customers

This is my daily routine. That’s it.

@ikoichi Hi !

[@levelsio @levelsio]

👨‍💼 People always ask me how I invest my money, so I open sourced my investment portfolio at https://t.co/sQ0aiU7v02

There's no big strategy here and no certainty that this is a good portfolio either, right now it returns about $120K/mo

I try buy mostly ETFs and they have the highest return for me overall

Sometimes stocks rise so much though it becomes disproportionate % of portfolio (like NVIDIA)

I don't invest in startups now, but maybe one day I will. Why not now? From my studies of VC funds: you need to invest 100 to 1000 times @ $100K = $10M to $100M to have one home run exit that makes your fund profitable statistically

Unless you for example put in $1M yourself and then raise another $9M to $99M from rich people and pension funds (via LPs) that means you statistically you make no chance of ever making a profit on your investments. So not sure I should do it at all now.

ETFs though are nice, they let me invests in tens of thousands of companies all around the world while paying for ex 0.07% in fees (called TER, Total Expense Ratio)! That means investing $100K in 10,000 companies costs me only $7 per year! The cheapest investment products on the planet.

Since I'm not American I buy the European versions (but still in USD) of ETFs (called UCITS), for ex VOO in US is called VUSD in EU, there's some tax savings if you buy it in Europe (if you're not American) etc.

Anyway I don't know much about it, just trying to do the right thing and not chasing short term profits but long term 20-30 years

Some of my inspirations for investing are John Bogle (inventor of ETFs) and Ray Dalio (tl;dr Asia is the future) and those depict my investment strategy

@AdiDulvara @levelsio pretty cool

[Luca Restagno 🐢 blacktwist.app @ikoichi]

One of the most discussed topics between developers and startup founders is how to deploy a @nextjs app.

Of course, a ton depends on your needs, the stage of the product, if static or SSR, and the product type (traffic intensive or not?).

I've put together the main hosting solutions with features and pricing, to give you a better idea.

You'll find some details about solutions like
@vercel
@Netlify
@render
@flydotio
@digitalocean
@awscloud
@Hetzner_Online

Is this useful, do you need more or different information?

I'd love to get your feedback 🙌

[Karim @karimmorta]

@jdtjenkins yea, i see what you mean, that's usually what happens to me when trying to use such components

at the end nothing better than starting from scratch (with tailwind) or building your own components

Information overload...

@NafetsWirth Depends of course, some people are good at marketing their product so they don't have to rely on that
