I'm a project manager in construction, and I still have to make my quotes in excel or word because of this. Don't know if this is a typical belgian thing, but it's pretty ridiculous.

I use Paprika recipe manager 3 on windows, but I'm pretty sure they have an osx version as well. I find it's useful to make week menu's and have it make a grocery shopping list. But I'm sure others can do that too.

But I get up at 4am already
Would these survive being in my washing machine? I'm desperate to find out where all my socks are going off to.

I stopped doing that when I got todoist. Less clutter.

I sold 500 eth for 12$ a piece after the drop from 20$ and felt like a genius.

Mind you, I make about 30k after tax. (Not in US)

I used to do this as well. I realised this weekend my mom still does after I set it up for her. Those things turn out to be nearly indistructible.

I learned that you can have a birthday every 10'ish months and no one will notice. (Except for people who actually know when it's your birthday obviously.) More than that and people will start to catch on.

Same here. I grew a beard and look quite a bit older with it, seems to get me a lot more respect. Terrorist jokes aside.

Said respect tends to disappear once I tell people I'm only 24, so I stopped doing that.
