As promised, here are the details for the upcoming FI meetup in Leeds. All details copied from the Facebook page:
ChooseFI Yorkshire Meetup
Our first meetup will take place on Sunday 20, May at 11:30am. Location: inside Starbucks 9-11 St Paul's Street, LS1 2HL, Leeds.
Starbucks as a location might not seem very FI but it is quite a big place, close to the train station and apparently not busy on Sunday mornings. (Yes, coffee is rather average, we should still purchase some, otherwise they won't have us again!;-)
We might start with introductions. If you want - prepare an answer to a question: What led you to find the FI movement, when did you discover it and (optional) where are you on that journey? Nobody is obliged to disclose their figures - confidentiality is assumed.
We will not have any rigid structure but maybe having a list of questions/topics will help if we get stuck or if small talk starts to creep in!
Here are some example questions:
Talk about your biggest money mistake, and what would you do differently?
What advice would you give your younger self?
Do you talk to your friends and family about FI? And if so, how do you do it and what reactions do you get?
Talk about an early memory of money and how it affects you now.
How do you economize and on what? How do you feel about it?
What do you splurge on and why?
What is your favourite life hack?
If you have other questions or want to suggest topics that interest you the most - please comment!
It will be lovely to meet you!
