My first custom will be called BILLionaire. It’ll be 2-3 weeks before I can build the custom (Money stuff).
A while back, I built a spreadsheet (of COURSE I did) I can use to plan out a custom.
It’s got some fancy bells and whistles:
Tell me if I’m under the 10-module minimum or over the 20-module maximum.
Projects the cost based on the modules in there, and factors in which modules I’ve already licensed (this will only factor in and become useful with Custom #2 and up, of course).
Anyway. I figured I’ll post the cores/modules here. Not so much as I’m looking for feedback/module suggestions as I am posting it so I won’t be tempted in 2-3 weeks to put this off any longer since that money "could be used for this bill or this card payment. If I post this, and I don’t have a way out other than buy the sub and let it help me reach my financial goals.
Goal: To get to the point financially where I can decide on, say, Monday morning I want to build a Q custom, order it by Monday afternoon…and not have to plan out when I can save up $$$ for it or sell shares of stock to cover it (as I am for this one). My employer (fuck I had that goddamn word) grants
Restricted Stock Units each year which then take 2-3 years to fully vest.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m GLAD they do that for me and my fellow employees (ugh lol) but I’d rather be ina position financially to not have to rely on that for my self-improvement purchases.
More on the financial goal: I built yet another spreadsheet (a few years ago) to help me determine how many hours I need on each 80-hour paycheck to cover my nut.
I actually need the 80 hours plus just over 8 hours of overtime on each check. It’s hard enough to make my 80. I usually fail at that due to workplace angst…anxiety…whatever it is.
So my goal here is to increase my income (from my own endeavours…preferably as passive as possible) so that I can gradually see that 88-hour calculate dwindle until it’s exactly 0.00 needed from the job.
Anyway…the Modules:
- Ecstasy of Gold ST1 Core
- Ecstasy of Gold ST4 Core
- Ascended Mogul Core
- Regeneration Q Core
- Informaticon
- Dominion
- Deus
- Carpe Diem Ascended
- Raikov
- Merger of Worlds
- Pragya
- Omnidimensional
- Limit Destroyer
- Yggdrasil
- Potentiator
- Emperor’s Voice
- Mosaic
- Lion IV
- Sultan
- I AM
For 20, I was considering “Limiting People Remover” or possible “Manipulus” … but given I’m sure who this would push me to limit/wipe from my experience, I’m holding off on that one for when I make a custom more focused on stuff like Power Can Corrupt as the main core. I’m 95% sure if I start trying to remove certain people from my life, I’ll need the skills from PCC (among other modules) to back that up.
I’m on the fence about whether I’ll go with Terminus or Terminus Squared.
T2 is appealing from the standpoint of only needing to listen once a week to start. More time to get shit done. EDIT: Another appealing aspect of T2 is I could make 5 T2 customs for different goals, listen to each one once a week, M-F. END EDIT
Terminus appeals more to that part of me that wants to feel like I’m actively “Doing something” to reach my goals, so listening once a day (in the morning) might be a good habit to get myself into and still get my goals/results.
I decided not to go with Q strength, just because I’d rather not go through all the “hassle” of finding my sweet spot for daily listening, since it seems from other journals that Terminus digs deeper than Q and also makes for less required loops for the same punch.
Anyway. That’s BILLionaire.
