All the new readers in this topic: I’ve created a POLL to fill out. This helps all of us to get a better picture anonymized about the forum and it’s members. We will come back next year with the results.
Please help us to fill the poll, and get the expected results between 100-200 answered polls.
Dear all!
As promised, here a first glance of our community - we have 63 filled in currently.
I tried to identify the most straightforward way - to both build and share, so I chose Google Data Studio.
Happy to hear your feedback!
The view should keep updating as new entries are being added.
If you right-click on the map and select Drill down, you will get the cities view (please note that this data is incomplete, as per survey entries)
The bottom treemap is not getting filtered, only the top elements are related.
Edit: Thanks @Mobius, I did some data cleansing, but missed those few FR-DE entries.
If you guys notice any more discrepancies, shoot!
And continue filling in the poll if you haven’t already!
To get back to the friends topic: since frugalism/FI has emerged as one of my most favored topics, I test it with practically everyone I have a longer conversation with. Some deplore their own situation, but could never imagine changing their habit. The topic “let’s imagine you’ve won the lottery” never fails to get the juices flowing. Another topic I raised with my colleagues at work is the geo arbitrage theme: “the nest egg is what it is, let’s check how long we can live where!” Miraculously, two of them appeared to have very interesting ideas of their own, building and selling own business or pumping up savings with consultant’s salary nd buying real estate. Sometimes I might be making people think by action, e.g. when I decide not to join a particularly pricey event with my wealthy friend by stating “budget overrun” as a reason for not turning up. With non-FI girlfriend I repeatedly use the bang-for-buck argument, and she mostly accepts or does her own thing. Yes, we need to be aware that we are a strange breed, but also can rely on our common trait of being curious, which will help us find other topics to discuss with “normal” people.
A little thread bump to invite all the newcomers in the past few months - fill out the form above if you feel comfortable.
Currently we have 71 participants.
Since it’s just a simple Google forms setup - unfortunately not by yourself.
If you have provided the username last time you filled it, I can check in the backend and let you know via PM.
What do you mean?
The “results” are the dashboard, and you can find organized meetups (not in these times though) in the Meetups section of the forum I suppose.
I see!
I didn’t think of exposing individual usernames, but I suppose if people felt ready to provide them (voluntarily), they wouldn’t mind them being seen.
Let me check what I can do.
If in the meantime anyone has something against it let me know.
P.s. to adapt to these times, a meetup could also be organized virtually on a video call I guess.
