How Much Have I Spent On My Coding Journey?
I’ve been learning to code since 2014. After taking the CodeNewbie survey I was motivated to get a more precise estimate on how much I’ve spent.
I combed through receipts to produce an estimate of how much I’ve spent on coding resources, tutorials, and books since 2015. Although I started learning in 2014 most of my invoices do not go back that far so I decided just to do 2015 to the present.
Here is the breakdown:
Skillcrush: $1,197
Treehouse: $588
Code School: $418
Interaction Design Foundation: $156
Tuts: $180
Lynda: $139.96
Udemy: $204
Upcase: $74.40
Books: $1,004.68
Total = $3,962.04
Note: This does not include my coding bootcamp, money spent on conferences and travel, and books purchased that weren’t on Amazon.
