I think it’d be cool if someone pulled the ideas from answers here into a spreadsheet, maybe categorised them somehow, and other people comment with +1s or −1s (if they’ve tried the thing and found it worthwhile or not) or any tips. Then the maintainer of the spreadsheet can sometimes reorder the items by which one has the most net +1s.
(This is something me, at least one other EA Funds person, and I think at least one other Rethink Priorities person previously thought we’d find useful.)

Here are other lists that would be worth consulting for that purpose:

“Katja Grace’s How to trade money and time
Sam Bowman’s Things I Recommend You Buy and Use
Rob Wiblin channeling Sam
Arden Koehler channeling Rob
Arden Koehler channeling herself
Sam Bowman channeling himself
Estimated hourly costs of buying free time (see comments)”
(The quoted bit is quoting from the first link’s list of other links.)
Yup, agreed some sort of collation sounds useful (the +1s thing is a nice extra but might not be worth the additional effort).
