Hello everyone,

I would like to keep this community active, as it is probably a topic everyone is interested in.

However one of the main issues I have is that back on Reddit, most of the content was about people sharing personal stories/concerns with their financial situation. Not really something that easy to emulate as we have a much smaller group of people.

Is there any other type of content you would like to see? I sometimes feel like personal finance strategies are usually detailed well enough in the various wikis (we might want to copy Reddit's one at some point, but for the time being, I guess just go back there).

Should we orient it more like an open question community with things such as "what is the best change you made in your investment strategy?" "what do you always plurge on beyond reason?"

Feel free to share your opinion!

This is exactly right! Financial literacy is something that is so sorely needed and not taught in (US) schools widely. I think it would be cool to highlight “different schools” or approaches - Dave Ramsey / Envelopes / YNAB and whatever else has worked for people to gain traction and get ahead of the paycheck to paycheck cycle. Then some beginner investment strategies for those that have had some success getting out of debt.

Just my two cents.
