Think & Discuss – Defining "Enough"

Think & Discuss is an open-format book club meetup at Fortnight Brewery, starting at 4:00 PM on November 17, 2026, with a suggested theme of defining "enough." The discussion is meant to be looser than usual, and the theme is there only if the group needs a starting point.

The suggested reading is the Investopedia article "How Can I Define 'Enough' In My Financial Life?" The organiser also offers some AI-assisted discussion prompts:

• What does "enough" mean to you, and has that changed over the years?
• Do people usually set their real "enough" number too high or too low?
• How much extra should be added to that number to cover unknowns such as healthcare, market downturns and longevity?
• Does the number include something left for children or charity, or is it only about yourself?
• If you already have "enough," does that change how you think about continuing to work?

The group keeps a Google Sheets list of past, present and future books and topics, plus a Google Doc describing upcoming meetings. Everything on both is tentative until an event is scheduled, because suggestions are taken during meetings. The books rotate between history or current events and practical how-to titles. No particular idea is endorsed; the aim is to meet new ways of thinking. The group tries to claim the room at the back right of the main seating area at Fortnight Brewing Company, as seen from the front door facing Maynard Road, and takes a nearby table if the room is taken. Arriving mid-discussion is fine, as is coming without finishing the book, and listening on Audible is welcome. Conversation often drifts off-topic anyway.
