    What does the gained back mean?

    The outlay recouped via the services run on the servers/VPS I presume.

    How much did you spend on the servers, and how much did you make off websites/services running on the servers (gained back)?

    It's hosting for a very specific game development program, you can buy my business for $7,000 USD ;)

  • Spent way more than I would have needed, just for the fun. Starting to cut down for 2015.

  • Over 300 w/ 100%+ ROI.

  • I have spent more than $4000 and gained a total of $2000+

  • Spent $500/m gained back $3500/m.

    Typo error with '0'? :D

  • Spent $200, gained back $0.

    Damn you LET, you cursed me :(

  • Hmm, let me contact my accounting first

    I spent $120 this year. I gained a priceless education and some useful skills.

    Nope, plaster a few site with adsense and from projects sponsors :)

    I know a guy who spend $20/m for delimiter box and gained $1500/m so I am normal.

    Simple, just get 75k-150k visitors/day in total :D

    I'd more call it selfish than normal. Normal in LE-Area is zero profit and kind of free education and thus graduation and of course skills in financings.

    That's not the point for all of us.

    can you please give 1 point?

  • About the cost of a month's worth of coffee and no monetary gain, but learned new things and had fun along the way. :)

    One of these days I might look into offsetting costs a bit. I don't really want to subject people to persistent trackers from ads though, so unless there's some non-intrusive, visitor-friendly way to implement ads, they're a no-go for me. Nice to know it's still viable for others though.

  • I have an excel sheet with the actual amounts & for 2014 it went above $550 ! A lot of services were simply put 'an epic waste' but some very affordable ones were far better.

  • I spent $700, gained $10 xD

  • It mostly hobbies. Never count.

    Well, maybe next year I'll sell dedi, VPS, and shared hosting in the flower market :P

    Anyone want to invest for me?
