Tip: Using Google to search forums
« on: July 10, 2014, 06:28:31 PM »
I can't always find the posts I want using the forum search bar. I've had good results using Google's site search. Just type:

"site:forum.mrmoneymustache.com"

into Google, followed by the terms you're searching.

Great tuip.

I use this search technique all the time, for many different websites.

Only thing is it won't work on stuff hidden from Google (like the journals).
I am a former teacher who accumulated a bunch of real estate, retired at 29, spent some time traveling the world full time and am now settled with three kids.
If you want to know more about me, this Business Insider profile tells the story pretty well.
I (rarely) blog at AdventuringAlong.com. Check out the Now page to see what I'm up to currently.
