It was 10 years ago today...

Congratulations! I'm coming up on my 12th year of having joined in here but had been lurking for perhaps 5 years prior. This site is, by far, the best of the internet and the mods help make it so! Some really great collective wisdom here.

Great thread in honor of our brilliant forum! I’ve lurked, posted, and learned way more than anywhere else. Consider the opinions, the article links, the graphs, the advice, and gentle steering away from politics (thank you mods) that have helped so many of us. Through the pandemic, understanding the financial world when there’s so much useless noise out there.

I mostly appreciate the responses. Ask simple or complex questions and you’ll get a menagerie of intelligent opinions from all walks of life. Thanks, Sojourner for pointing this out.

I feel the same as you! Nowhere’s near your NW, but I’m so much smarter and better off since coming here and learning from others. I’ve got 6 more years, crossing my fingers and toes!

Sojourner, congratulations and yes what a great place to be part of. The knowledge and wisdom and willing to help is second to none here on ER.

Thank You.

This got me curious about when I joined, so I had to look. 2008! Love this place.
