  • Follow-up to Virtual Meetup #8

    Thank you to everyone who joined the virtual meetup #8. Again a very low turn-up but we had some interesting discussions. This is a follow up to that meeting where I paraphrase and summarize what happened in the meet-up. I will not cover all the topics. Just the ones I felt that might help the readers or if I felt that I needed to add more clarity to my responses.

  • Virtual Meet-up #8

    It is time for another virtual meet-up. If you don’t know, I setup these meet-ups roughly once a quarter to meet with my blog readers. It started out as a physical meet-up back in March 2020, but it happened only once thanks to COVID-19. After that we started meeting virtually over Google Meet. So if you are interested, I’d like to invite you to join me in virtual meet-up #8. We discuss random things on the topics of financial planning, early retirement, home schooling, sustainable living or any other topic of interest.

  • Virtual Meet-up #7

    I'd like to invite you to join me in a virtual meet-up to discuss random things on the topics of financial planning, early retirement, home schooling or sustainable living. We can share our stories and ask each other questions or give suggestions. As a group we can learn from each other's experience, learnings and pit-falls. Since I post a lot about myself on this blog, you probably already know everything about me. But if you ever wanted to ask me something this is your chance!

  • Virtual Meetup

    Given the COVID-19 situation, it is probably better to do a virtual meetup rather than a physical one.

  • Early Retirement, Home schooling and Organic Gardening

    A few readers of the blog and myself met in Bangalore on March 14, 2020. This was the first time I met my readers with whom I had no prior interaction with. I was a little apprehensive about the meeting, but it was a great learning experience for me. I am not sure if I was helpful in answering their questions, but they helped me understand how like minded we all are. I found it interesting that not only do our interest in early retirement match, but also that we have similar thoughts or ideas about home schooling and/or organic gardening/farming. Before talking more about what happened in the meetup, first a quick word on how it all started.
