Early Retirement Extreme Forums

Super short notice, but there's an ERE meetup happening tomorrow in Central London, 17:00. Confirmed attendance so far: two forumites.
DM me for exact location

How would it work for you all if it was centered around the week end on the 5-7 july ? This way, It doesnt compete too much with louftard's ERE fest.

I can't confirm attendance yet, but market it in my calendar! Hope to see y'all there and thank you @Jean!

Thank you @Melo @Chris @Sabaka! I’m too tired to manage all the steps for uploading more photos right now, but made a note to do it… at some point. February 2024 Update! (How do I update the title of this thread? I can’t edit the first post, apparently?) I’ve started university, and also started a t...

Nice! I was there recently, would be happy to visit again
Any suggestions for a specific weekend?

Answered! People more familiar with the UK transit system etc etc, what would be a good place for a general UK meetup?

Great to see so much interest!
Maybe we should start suggesting weekends. @Jean since you offered to host, would you like to suggest a weekend that's convenient for you? Thank you very much!

Sounds good to me! I want to see more of the UK anyway, so I'd be happy with picking a different place each time : ) (Got my railcard today)

Close enough that I can visit London without an overnight stay, I don't want to post exact locations on the internet.

Not London based but could commute!

We can keep organising this here then!

Thank you so much everyone. I didn’t expect this many responses. I’ll try to think about/respond to as much as I can. This got way longer and way more introspective than I thought it would, I was expecting something more like “take this elective not that”. :lol: But first, thanks to @chenda for maki...

Are there plans for length and agenda already? Are we planning a meetup somewhere for a weekend, a day, a week? Meet at a camp site, biwak space, etc? I might be traveling by bike and/or train. Any preferences? Alpine region could be nice for some hikes but also health might prevent some folks to j...

I could travel to Bavaria @horsewoman and @Melo are from there IIRC?
Might also make it easier for people in Austria/Switzerland to get there.

Hello forum, I'd like your wisdom on how to optimally use the three years of an undergraduate degree, if you'd be willing to share. What did you do, or see others doing, that worked well? What would you do differently in hindsight? I'm also interested in general discussion, but here are my specifics...

What's the level of interest? I'd suggest that for those who are interested, we can post a rough outline of when and where we would be likely to attend. Mine is: Time: late June to September Location: have family in NRW and Saxony, would be open to travel Unless it turns out we are all clustered in ...

I quite often find a few things in the weekly review that are now irrelevant/redundant/complete/etc. The busier I have been, the more there generally is to prune. So I don't see that as a problem so much; the weekly review is partially there as a failsafe clean-up of your system. I have found it is...

@7 Ah ok thank you!! I didn't connect the dots but that explained a sudden improvement I saw. If you, or anyone else, has any other examples like that tik-tok video they'd be greatly appreciated! It's a bit short :lol: I also downloaded Klerb, the match-people-based-on-booktaste app you mentioned in...

Wow. I've been doing GTD for over a year. Thanks @AxelHeyst! I'm not really "getting it", though. Capturing everything in more or less one place (still the Everdo app) is very helpful, but the rest of the process doesn't really click yet. I often neglect sorting until my inbox becomes a se...

Happy new year to you too, and good luck with your plan!
