Hi I'm galeno

Yeah, I was a regular over there on the REHP board until pretty recently. It's become almost 100% political these days so I mostly avoid it now.

Are you talking about this (retireearlyhomepage.com) forum?

I only see a handful of posts this year.

Just looking at the thread names it looks like something that I would not enjoy.

That is what makes this board so great. For the most part our politics stay in our back pockets. I really appreciate everyone treating topics as open questions for analysis and/or experience-based feedback rather as opportunities for ideological battles. It's very refreshing.

Back when I was starting retirement planning I made the mistake of posting a question there. Hoo boy. For an early retirement board they sure seemed hostile to the idea.

Took a quick look, and Brewer's characterization appears to be accurate. Horrible (and of no relevance to FIRE).

Click on the user's name and go to the profile page. There are two tabs, "about me" and "statistics". Click on "statistics", then choose 'show all posts' and a list of posts will appear, in chronological order, most recent first.

Thanks, Mike,

I did miss it.

And I agree with his position, and it doesn't bother me a bit.

Thanks, now I see what he is talking about.

Agreed, but ever the optimist, I clicked on a few looking for some signal in the noise. Didn't find any signal at all, and gave up in short order. Don't plan to look again.

I'm fine with controversial topics and drag down fighting to defend your view, but that was mostly at the level of "Is not! - Is too!! - Is not!!!". No mental exercise at all. Similar to many of the 'comments' sections of the online news articles.

Gosh! We would NEVER have posts like that here. Would we?

Would too!
