I like to write in my books, so refunds aren't in the picture.

Can you do a language course? That always sounded fun to me and a good use of someone else's money.

It's only embezzlement if you get caught. Until then it's a good idea

10% towards Tech Sales U. 100 down on the refundable deposit. Finish the program, and pocket the $100 for yourself upon refund. Get paid to learn. Allocate the other 90% to books, webinars, or sales training workshops.

i would suggest master class, and audible for sure. buy a few books and return them haha.
I would be careful with actual sales courses though. unless its super specific to what you want to learn it could be a waste of time.

If you interested in learning language as @Sunbunny31, go for it. I subscribe to Masterclass and I like listening to all those influencers, not sure if thatโs of interest. Honestly, I also end up not using the budget at all ๐

Books:
5 second rule Leaders eat last The richest man in Babylon How to win friends and influence people The E myth Never split the difference Emotional intelligence Becoming Supernatural 48 laws of power Anything Tim Farris The body keeps the score The power of positive confrontation The dichotomy of leadership Atomic Habits Extreme ownership Spin selling Sell or be sold The obstacle is the way The marshmallow test
And then some. Self education and study will always pay more in every part of your life. I make a habit of leaving my book on my desk and before any emails, calls, text- literally anything besides an emergency, Iโll read for 10-15 mins.
