Canada.Ontario.TriCities
« on: September 29, 2018, 05:56:29 PM »
New to the forum. Search functionality blew up, so starting a thread. If there's one already, please let me know and I'll delete this.

Until then -- anybody in Cambridge who wants to grab a beer and help accelerate my learning? I'm going through all blog posts, currently starting 2015.

42 views but no replies. That's either a lot of bots/crawlers, or... Y'all are snobs. C'mon tri-city mustachians, sound off!

I'm not in Cambridge often, but if you find yourself with a reason to be in KW, I'm around. If that reason is at lunchtime I can even get you in to free lunch at my workplace ;)

Another K-W'enite here and signed up to the forum to answer this post -though I've read every MMM article at least once by now! Search worked for me and it seems there are a few locals. It would be nice to meet some, as I'm usually surrounded by oversized pickup truck commuter-vehicles and the sound/stench of gas-powered lawncare machines in this part of Kitchener :)

I'll see if I can edit the title to TriCities instead.

Have finally finished all blogs. Took me months. Makes me cry because I found this immediately AFTER buying a pickup. >>>sigh<<< I bought a poop-hole of a house and knew I would strip it bare, so a bare-bones pickup with long box made sense to me. I lucked into a vehicle 8 years old with 24k on the clock, and bought. Renovation has made excellent use of it, but I can accept that a car with trailer might have done as well or better. Especially because I commute into Mississauga. Yes, I am a clown. But at least I *know* it! Once the reno is complete I'll dump the truck. I bought the bike and trailer but haven't used them.

Every night after work, every weekend, I spend sawing and nailing and screwing driving screws and lifting things. The house is tiny by most standards, but I can easily afford it, so I can start saving for retirement. I stick to the speed limit now because that saves mucho gas -- and reduces stress remarkably. I haven't spent time searching for a job in Cambridge yet, but that might start once my insulation gets sprayed in. Oh -- the plan is to install radiant heat via tankless water heater. ;)

Okay, enough blah blah blah from me. Beers? Is there any kinda local organizing, perhaps through meetup dot com or other venue?

Hey, I know this post is a bit old, but I couldn't find a newer one to reply too, hope you guys are still around!

I've recently moved from Brazil to Kitchener, and would love to have some mustachian friends around town!

Down to get together, PM me if interested as I rarely check the forum. Can either meet with or without babies included depending on your preference. Ha!

I have received some responses of people interested on meeting, thus I've created this poll on Google Forms, so we can pick a date/place.

Please reply if you are willing to attend: https://forms.gle/k7zSPVev9UH2D1LB9

The idea is to meet next week, Sept 19-22.

I'm from Toronto, so a bit far for me.  There is also a Canadian Mustachian Facebook Group and sometimes they have meet ups.  Might be easier to find people there instead of using the forum.

Just seeing this now. Was there a MMM meet up? That was also CMTO weekend and I saw that some Choose FI fans were meeting in Waterloo Park.
