Early Retirement Extreme Forums

Recently reading "the history of FIRE" it occurred to me how beneficial it was for me to have access to this forum.

I'm going on six years of financial freedom and it all started with a radical idea. So radical that I could not discuss it with anyone. I've always been extremely independent and self motivated, but a real life changing decision needs support.

I can't specify exactly what I needed. I think it was a little bit of everything contributed on this forum. The general like minded idea that we can do more with our life than work for the man until you are decrepit and scrapped aside.

Thanks everyone for sharing your thoughts, experience and unique perspective.

Amen to that.

Thanks everyone!

Great work on achieving your financial freedom. Still working towards mine, but getting very close now. Will be most satisfying when the time comes.
