@nighthalk

I don't want to call it becasue I'm 50/50 if I can make it. Would you like to call it? :D

I'm busy on the 9th in the afternoon and evening, so no go for me unless it's a later morning type thing
open on 10, 16 and 17.

If you guys are willing to come all the way out here, I'd be happy to host at the common area at our place again (Mesa, Lindsay and Main), but I am ok driving further West if that helps (Tempe Beachpark, Marketplace etc.)

9th or 10th both work for me.  I don't mind going to Mesa, but Tempe/Scottsdale is much closer.

Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow morning.
I made a small Mustache sign so those who don't know anyone in the group can find us easier, I hope to remember to bring it!
See you all tomorrow

Here's a new suggestion for a meetup
Playing with FIRE movie 9th December 7:30 in Mesa
https://www.tugg.com/events/playing-with-fire-b8s4

I'll also suggest another get together, as discussed last weekend, still trying to figure out when.
Probably towards end of November, or first weekend in December.

During the last meetup discussed having a get together at our place (public space at the place we stay for the winter).
Looking at my calendar that proves to be a challenge.
I could host something 1pm ish on 24th November, a Sunday or not until the 21st December (a Saturday)
It would be bring a snack to share, your own drink and hang out, chat.
Let me know if those dates would work for you guys.

If not suggest something more central and pick a place.
Week nights are starting to get pretty busy for me too now.

Hey y'all.

In light of the current situation, I'm organizing a virtual meetup over Zoom. It's super straightforward, so don't be intimidated if you're not particularly tech savvy.

It will be next Saturday, April 11th at 1pm Phoenix time. I do not want to post the link publicly, so please message me on here and I will provide you with a link that you can use to join us.

Our Zoom person moved to Hong Kong.  Most of us who scheduled the meetups are only around part of the time now.  All you have to do to schedule a meetup is find a place and announce a day and time.  Extra credit if you make some kind of sign so folks can find you that day.

Hello everyone,

My name is Benjamin Dubertrand and I am a social anthropologist from France. I am currently a visiting scholar at the University of Arizona.
 I am interested in the FIRE movement and  I would like to conduct research on individuals who have retired early in France and the United States.
I came across this forum while researching the topic and I am impressed by the level of engagement and discussion here.

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in sharing their experiences with me and participating in an interview for my research. Your insights could be invaluable to me and could help shed light on the motivations and challenges of those who pursue the FIRE lifestyle.

The interviews would last between 30 and 60 minutes and can be conducted in person or via Zoom or Skype, depending on your preferences and availability.

If you are interested or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
I look forward to hearing from you and hope to engage in meaningful conversations with the members of this community.

Thank you for your time and consideration,
