December 2025 expenses:

XenForo Software: $380
Miscellaneous: $212.22
Domains: $211.04
Affiliate Donation (DCIN): $100
Hosting: $66.70
Administrative: $25

Total: $994.96

The XenForo software and domains were for new projects related to the FDMB that will help us grow. The affiliate donation was from our affiliate link earnings since we started them earlier this year. They totaled just under $50, so I rounded up and sent that to DCIN. We had a credit on our hosting account, so that was lower than usual.

November 2025 expenses:

Miscellaneous: $1,332.71
Facebook Ads: $121.46
Hosting: $144.45
Consulting: $100
Administrative: $25
Domain: $22.67

Total: $1,746.29

The big one this month was the calendars themselves (included in miscellaneous). And some troubleshooting for a server-related issue. Some small project-related expenses in the miscellaneous as well. These project things aren't absolutely necessary, but will help us grow. So if it becomes too much I can easily scale these back.

October 2025 expenses:

Miscellaneous: $1,877.60
Facebook Ads: $183.17
Hosting: $144.45
Administrative: $75

We had some more one-time costs listed under miscellaneous related to the calendars. For example, boxes and packaging, a shipping label printer, and other things I need to be able to pack these up at my house. Also there were some other project-related expenses related to the board in there.

September 2025 expenses:

Miscellaneous: $685.39
Hosting: $134.16
Domain: $125.70
Google Ads: $108.68

Total: $1,053.93

We had some one-time costs listed under miscellaneous related to the calendars and some other project-related expenses. Our domain expenses were higher because I bought some adjacent domains to ours. Google ads are paused, but I did restart Meta ads, so that will show up next month.
