if you break it down, the savings aren’t always immediate. It’s more of a long game.
Yeah, that’s been my experience too. I put in solar panels three years ago and my wallet’s still waiting for its “aha!” moment. The tech is cool, but man, when it glitches, suddenly I’m Googling stuff like “why is my thermostat possessed?” Still, I figure by the time I retire, maybe I’ll finally break even... or at least have a good story about chasing rebates.

That hits home. I did the math before getting panels and figured I’d see some real savings by now, but honestly, it’s more like a slow drip than a waterfall. Still, I keep telling myself the energy bills could be way worse without them, especially with rates creeping up. The tech hiccups are annoying, but I guess it’s part of the package deal. At least you’re not alone in the rebate-chasing saga... been there, still doing that.
