This was a forward of an email from my domain registrar notifying me of domain renewal (which costs money). I forwarded it.

Notification of Balance Due + Domain Registration Term Expiry - In case you still want to have this registered, I am forwarding it to you to let me know.
In case you still want to have this registered, I am forwarding it to you to let me know.
BALANCE REPAYMENT
There are currently 275 days until the date (03/07/2024) which you decided you could repay me for my time as well as the time which Carson, Lara, and snk spent on the spookytf project (I immediately paid them all so this balance is all owed to me.)
Your outstanding balance, as documented here , is $827.99
As you mentioned, this payment "can have normal Swedish interest rate" offhandedly as you ended our voice chat.
Since this is exceptionally vague, I will take the most overage assumptions as to the specifics which you referred to while trying to assuage your guilt.
Type: Compounding Interest
Term: 1 year
Principal: $827.99 USD
Interest Rate: 1.47% - 2.37% (source)
Frequency: Monthly (standard for everything, I don't feel I need to cite this but if you make me to I will. Heavily.)
Several scenarios are created, but here is my analysis of some of them. Please feel free to offer your thoughts as a response email, or even a phone or video-call if you would prefer.
[Interest Calculation Results (wolframalpha, chatgpt4)]
| Interest Rate | Accrued Interest (as of 3/7/2024) | Accrued Interest (as of today) | Total Amount Owed (as of 3/7/2024) | Total Amount Owed (as of today) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Low (1.47%) | $12.25 | $9.22 | $840.24 | $837.21 |
| Average (1.92%) | $16.04 | $12.02 | $844.03 | $840.01 |
| High (2.37%) | $19.84 | $14.85 | $847.83 | $842.84 |
Please note that these values are approximations and actual values may vary slightly due to rounding. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please don't hesitate to ask.
At this point I'm almost 100% certain you are not going to pay me for my time, which is unfortunate, and I wish our relationship could be more amicable. However, I was not the main cause of this bad blood between us. I contributed, certainly, but perhaps even you can agree that I did not kill the thing. That was you when you intended to forcefully shift the MVP into an entirely different project after 60% of the website infrastructure was finished. Oh also Daniel got back to me -- apparently he did end up finishing it. He just didn't say anything. I blame him for that, not you, but thought you should know nevertheless.
As I mentioned, I seriously doubt I get a dime of compensation back from you for my time (and money!) as well as the other people's time, but I need you to remember what you're doing and what you did, not out of malice, but on principle of the matter. Even if you do not get it, at least I tried.
Good luck working for your father. Nepotism is nice. Sometimes I benefit from it too, but I imagine you'll be earning a fair bit more from yours than I mine. So congratulations on that. I sincerely hope you learn from this and never treat any of your subordinates the way you treated me and the team in general.
