Saying hi from Seattle!
« on: February 20, 2018, 05:03:51 PM »
Hello everyone, my name is Wendell and I am a YNAB4 convert.  I just found Financier in the last couple of days and I think I'm all in!  I have been using YNAB4 for several years on and off, and it has really helped my wife and I get on track with our spending and now hopefully working on getting debt free.

I love what Financier is doing, and hope to be able to help out wherever possible to keep this project improving!  I have VERY limited programming skills, but I feel I'm a fairly smart guy (my wife may disagree!) so I'm hoping to be able to help out in some small way.

I am a Captain at Horizon Air, a wholly owned regional subsidiary of Alaska Airlines.  I can talk for hours about airplanes, so beware! ;-)  I plan on being around here pretty often as I get more involved and look forward to getting to know the community more as it hopefully grows!

Thanks everyone,
Wendell

Welcome aboard!

Thanks!

Good to have you and thank you for jumping in so quickly!

Glad to be of service!  Love what Financier is doing so far, and want to do everything I can to help it succeed!

Welcome aboard "Captain"...... We all look forward to your creative wisdom  :) :)

Lol, well thanks, and I will contribute what I can!  I'm not too sure I would call it creative wisdom however...Creative...juices maybe?! :-P  If nothing else I can be a cheerleader for Financier!

PS - Hmm...are we able to get custom monikers on the forums?  I kind of like the idea of being colloquially known around these parts as Captain...Lol  ;D :parrot:

Wecome, and reading that makes makes me wish I had proceeded past the first 3 flight lessons.

Thanks!  It's never too late to at least get your private pilots license!  I instructed for 3 years while I was building time towards the airlines.  I taught everyone from teenagers who were 14 (even though they couldn't solo until 16 or get their license until 17!) to very rich professionals to 70 year old retirees!

If you are at all curious at any point feel free to reach out.  I'd be glad to discuss further!  8)

Hmm...Might have to work on making one of those!
