I thought that this was a non-prophet website. Big Grin

Amazing that you can balance a budget and Congress can't.

This is awesome. Keep up the great work!
@Tiberius: I'm curious if you'd be interested in having a merch shop where you don't actually purchase merchandise, but you have a spot on the website for one of those cafe stores. You could offer anything that the AF logo can be printed on. Shirts, hoodies, hats, pins, coffee mugs etc. I don't believe it would cost anything to have such a set up and people might buy things. I know I'd get a coffee mug.

Just a suggestion Big Grin

Logo and the URL. Don't want to be confused with that .com over yonder.

Accountability ?

Financial statements ?

Responsibilities towards the membership ?

Our Costs

Domain Renewals: $27.64
Hosting: $544.01
SSL/TLS Certificate: $8.95
External Backups: $95.20

Total: $675.80

Our Revenue

Patreon Donations: $498.07
Advertising: $5.14*
Other Donations: $178.83

Total: $682.04

* This was our remaining balance on Tapatalk before we disabled the service for security reasons.

That leaves $6.24 leftover, which we will put back into the costs for 2018. Thank you to everyone who donated, whether you contributed a one-time amount, or contribute monthly via Patreon!

Oh look at the greedy CEO here, $6.24 is enough to take every member on a trip to Hawaii! WHAT ABOUT MY DAUGHTERS?
