GitLab/GitHub pages? Long ago, I took notes[0] for myself and put them in a repo. It was easy to set up GitLab to build them.

I also had blogs. As a student living in an underbanked country, I wanted to trade stocks. I jumped through hoops to find a broker in the U.S. that would allow me to do that. I contacted so many that when I found one, I started a blog just for the article.

To get going, I needed a MasterCard. I jumped through so many hoops, literally knocking on banks' doors, being given conflictin/inaccurate/incomplete information, that when I finally go the card, I put up that article in the blog [almost a thousand comments and replies, hundreds of thousands have read it, and I became the 'internet payments' guy in the country]
