Weekly Finance vol. 114

In

Amazingly sold two items this week. And that cleared up the last multiple items auction I have. I need to remember cancelling the free trial Yahoo! Premium before it ends.

Future In

Nothing yet. Maybe sometime this week? I have plenty of unused PC now which I really should get around selling already.

Out

No big purchases over the week. I did buy some ero manga and doujinshi and last month’s Moeoh.

Future Out

As I’ve preordered (almost) everything last week, there’s nothing new yet. Yuzusoft may come anytime soon now so there’s that. And of course I need to spare enough budgets for the unpaid preorders for next one or two months.

I almost forgot about Ambitious Mission Moeoh tapestry but it’s not in Amazon yet so it may be a while until I can actually preorder it. I have Saga Planets budget remaining but as it will also be used for preorders, it means it’ll take a more while to clear up the budget.

As for Kantoku’s tapestry, I’m skipping it.

Last year ended up barely on target. I hope I don’t as crazy as last year. Especially on computer upgrades.

Closing Book

Looking at last year’s closing post I remembered I made this section so here it is for 2021.

Computer Stuff

  • Ryzen system (which I ended up not needing)
  • iPhone (also ended up not quite needed as Rakuten later added support for iPhone 8 although eSim support is mildly useful and faster CPU is welcome)
  • A lot more SSDs
  • Proper BD drive for ripping stuff
  • Xbox controller and related accessories (wireless adapter and rechargeable batteries)
  • More RAMs
  • Monitor
  • Small WiFi router
  • Keyboard keycaps
  • Ethernet cards (both gigabit and 10Gbit – although I ended up with too many 10Gbit cards now)
  • Speakers (by subwoofer. Or maybe it’ll return this year?)
  • Ryzen 5900X
  • PSU (should’ve gotten 750W or 850W instead of 650W)

At over half million yen, it’s a bit too much. Some of them have been in planning for years so I hope I don’t need to do this anymore.

Eroge, Anime, etc

16 new eroges on 2021. Or 12 if I exclude preorder for 2022. Meanwhile I cleared a total of 8 titles. It’s better compared to last year but is still pretty slow in term of completion.

As for goods, I count 10 dakimakura covers and 37 tapestries. Both are down compared to previous year.

I’m not going to write down the detail but total spending is a lot less compared to last year. It’s just a bit over half of last year.

Except for FGO which I ended up spending 160k(!). Compare that to 13k previous year. I don’t think I’ll do that ever again.

Investments

45.66% last week. Also last year. That’s even more up and I think it’s highest the number for the year. That’s also a lot more compared to last year. I don’t know if this will keep up (I doubt it) but it sure was a good year for stocks.

iDeCo is also up at 39.63% (17.27% yield). It didn’t quite reach the highest for the year but not too bad overall.
