buy massive stock of CBD oil for sleep because it's now outlawed in France which doesnt make sense. You can buy CBD to smoke (very unhealthy) but you cannot buy CBD to take in a healthy way to relieve stress, stress which is a known factor increasing risk of cancer and a lot of other things, esp. since it can help getting better sleep and poor sleep is also linked with a lot of health issues. I'll import my CBD illegally from other EU countries now.

move MFA of my stock broker from password manager to Yubikey so that sensitive stock broker auth is now true hardware multi factor for improved safety

test new AirPods Pro 3 that I bought this weekend and noise cancellation is far superior from the Pro 2 — loving it!

declare FR taxes after 3h collecting reports from various banks, companies and brokers, then filling forms... and at the end I realized I still owe a shit ton of money that I don't have anymore in cash (cause I bought a new Tesla), because FR changed tax law a bit for 2025 and I didnt account for it cause tax code got so much more complex lately (cause country is basically broke so it’s getting more and more socialist)
so now I will either need to take a loan or sell assets to pay extra surprise taxes

upgrade personal servers exposed to the internet to fix new critical Linux kernel vulnerability potentially allowing root escalation

buy a short phone lanyard to attach my yubikey in my backpack front pocket for easy access cause in case of an emergency it used to be very long to reach cause it’s so small so I stored it in a tight pocket in a small bag inside the bag (3 zippers to unzip just to get the yubi)
now I can just open front pocket quickly and pull on yubi and scan with phone NFC to get a MFA code like real quick

study how to simplify my assets structure in company because I don’t want to have anything to do anymore with French bureaucracy over the long run.
the more revenue generating assets you own the more complex it becomes to manage every year when its tax season cause need to add personal income tax + preparing all my companies financial statements
