If you are at all interested in networking, I highly recommend doing this or joining the private DN42 network that's mentioned elsewhere in the thread. Setting this all up and actually seeing your IP addresses respond to pings from a machine halfway around the world is, to me, an amazing feeling.

We aren't going to run out of 32-bit (six digit) ASNs or IPv6 addresses any time soon, so you're not consuming a scarce resource by doing this.
