I know it’s a rude question, but it’s been on my mind… I’m wondering roughly what I should be expecting to outlay when I finish my set-up? So I’m assuming it includes things like domain names, hosting for backups, email providers, VPN, etc. What’s a good budget to set?

    I run a pretty hefty home lab, so my costs are fairly high compared to some.

    • Electricity: $70/mo
    • Internet: $55/mo (1000x35)
    • Cloud backup: $20/mo
    • Web firewall/IDS/IPS: $8.30/mo ($99/yr)
    • Domain/email: $15/yr
    • VPS: $1/mo

    Overall: $155/mo
