"Breaking News" Homer Simpson retires as "Finfluencer"

Hello my dears,


disappearing so quietly and secretly from the community isn't the English way, although most people here are anonymous and you'll never know the real reason. If something really bad happens, sadly we will never know.


And no you don't get banned here at getquin for political opinions although you should be careful what you post and that's not the reason why I'm hanging up my "career", I think after almost 5 years here at getquin I just got tired of social media. I feel like I've chewed through everything here and honestly I'm lacking ideas to create creative posts for the community that offer real added value and I'm also wondering if all the time spent on social media could be put to better use.


So thank you for the last 5 years to the community, I was able to take a lot with me and improve my Investems and hopefully give something back to you and provide inspiration with my post, even if I often associated the fart dry investing with some fun and could hardly keep up with other quality posts from the community. Thanks to everyone who has accompanied me on my journey here.


Big thanks to @GoDividend
@Tenbagger2024
@DonkeyInvestor
@RealMichaelScott and of course @InvestmentPapa


also @He-Man
@CashDividendGamer
@Klein-Anleger
@Koenigmidas and of course many others for the constant likes 🥰


Let's see maybe I'll feel like reporting on it again at the next milestone but at the moment I don't want to make my portfolio public or post individual purchases, it feels like only a handful post their purchases here anyway. Somehow I've lost the fun of it too.


But maybe I'm too old for all this social media nonsense and it's time to stop 😂 or it's the midlife crisis I'm turning 40 this year😂


Thank you dear ones, may the returns be with you ✊😊

Well my comment, about 5 minutes before your post here, that you are the only constant on getquin has aged incredibly badly.

Or did you get the month wrong and this is an April Fool's joke 🥲?

@DonkeyInvestor No, actually considered it for a while and now dared to post 😅

@Simpson would have preferred to remain a bit more of a scaredy-cat.

Take care, dear Homer. See you at the next Covid or influenza outbreak, when you're sick in bed again and start posting out of boredom.

Phew, I remember my beginnings here at the end of 2024, where you were always one of the entertaining assets for me.😢

Bitter goodbyes here at the moment but that's how (social media) life goes sometimes.

Thank you for your posts with added value, your picks, which have always (at least for me) provided amusement and: Thank you for your valuable work in real life.🙏🏻

All the best and hope to see you again soon.🙋🏼‍♂️

Posting nothing doesn't mean you're not here, treat yourself to a break or a change of perspective.

Times simply change, but you can still exchange ideas.

But I'm a bit angry because you deleted the community project $UKW 🤣

My good one-> stay registered and respond when someone calls you!

@GoDividend I'm sorry 🥲 but yes, VHF was the highlight of my social media "career" 😍

@Simpson just stay active
As a shitposter and commentator, you can also have fun here without the spotlight but with the necessary humor for life

@GoDividend I probably won't have the heart to leave the community completely anyway, so I will certainly drop by from time to time and leave likes 😊

@Simpson How long do you actually sit at your computer to delete all your posts? 🤣

@GoDividend Oh the first post I deleted at the beginning of the year didn't take long to cover the tracks, I think over 300 posts in half an hour 😂 only the AI pictures post left but meanwhile also deleted, who doesn't know that Disney is knocking on the door with lawyers 😂 the one to say goodbye take a risk 😂

@GoDividend just wanted to repost a post at the end and even that he took to his grave 😭
@Simpson You're getquin's living inventory, you can't just leave completely 🙄
Think about it again

Really, really a pity @Simpson

It's really crazy how time flies. You were one of the first people I became aware of here when I arrived in 2022. Your posts were always a great added value for me.

I wish you much success away from social media 🍀 keep it up and you will always be the prime example of how to build your own ETF 😜

@RealMichaelScott are you thinking of making a comeback as a news bringer/accountant here? I haven't stumbled across a post from you for a long time either 😅

@GoDividend if I find another exciting topic. What would you like to see? 🤓

It's a shame that you're leaving too. Even though we are pursuing completely different strategies, I have always enjoyed following your input and your journey. I wish you all the best! And I look forward to seeing you again.

There's no like for that. But you're right, a little peace and privacy is a must. Now I'll cry myself to sleep later. Thank you old letter carrier for all the posts and motivation. 👋

Then keep the parcels nice and tight or were your ears stiff. Anyway, thanks for all the smiles your pictures have given me. Maximum course success, may the market be with you to give you the opportunity to get out of this hamster wheel sooner. You always see each other twice in life, I would be very happy. Knock yourself out 😎🙄🤗🤗

Too bad. A case of borderline syndrome? Why is there only a choice between hardcore writers or total abstainers? 🧐 Why not take the relaxed middle way and only write when there's something to write about and otherwise read along occasionally? 🤷‍♂️

@Dividenden-Penner Just googled the symptoms😂 inner empty feeling applies 😅 I guess I have to take the relaxed middle way 😂

Very, very sad 😢 but you don't have to withdraw completely, do you? Adding your two cents every now and then is enough. But I understand your decision. All the best on your future journey. We will miss you.

@ShrimpTheGimp the old hares always switch from posters to shitposters here, that's the law 🤣

@GoDividend Was this also the case with @DonkeyInvestor? 😅

@ShrimpTheGimp Yes
Incredible added value for the community at the time, recognizing the signs of the times and now acting from the background

@ShrimpTheGimp I've actually always been a shitposter. But sometimes too many people posted serious shit here. Then I couldn't stand it and produced some high quality shit. You can read about it in my profile, pinned post.

@DonkeyInvestor Haha 😂 I'll have to have a browse :)

@DonkeyInvestor Wasn't that the birth of TL:Dr here on Getquin?

@GoDividend yo, together with @InvestmentPapa who also wrote such endlessly long posts. But nobody here knows him anymore.

But as a recognized shitposter with lots of followers, I feel I've arrived 😁

@DonkeyInvestor all good 👌 otherwise I'll quickly switch back to a shitpost. Thanks already

@DonkeyInvestor Dad has already laid boards here too.

What I liked about the type of post back then was that it wasn't just for 2 minutes but was really aimed at the long-term investors

For example, your comparison of home ownership to Etf etc.

Can be read at any time

Oh my dear Homer... I can understand you and will miss your humor...
But maybe you'll crack one every now and then and make someone smile 🙃
Then concentrate on what's important in life and always remember that! --> We love you 😜👍🏻
Best regards
Your He-Man🗡️💥

But why this binary approach? You don't have to choose between being active or inactive. I can only recommend that you simply find an intermediate path. If I have something to say, then I'll say it. If not, then I don't. I don't check in here regularly, but sometimes I have unconventional thoughts and then I do. And then I write it down because I think it's interesting.

@Soprano It's like in real life now, I don't want to be judged and criticized about my personal financial decisions anymore, I prefer to invest incognito in a relaxed manner

@Simpson I would never criticize you for the way you invest and are up for it. It's amazing that others do it that way. But I can understand you! Thank you so much for your inspiration! :) I'm also more of a quiet and interested reader. If I'm really interested in something and I ask the swarm knowledge here, then I do it. Maybe a few weeks/months for you too.

What a pity. You were always my favorite user here. Just a down-to-earth, likeable guy.
Wish you all the best and still hope to read something from you here again one day 🙂

Merci for the last 5 years, countless purchases you have shared and various good contributions from you dear Homer.
Feel my hugs for you 😘

@FrauManu Look, you're still here too. The best example that the old users don't leave us👍🖐️

@GoDividend I'll stay here forever and ever 💪🏼. You just never stop learning. Even if the quality of the posts here was rather mediocre for a while, it's still worth checking in here from time to time.

Homer dear, you were the first one I followed here! How often did you have to defend your dividend strategy here? Just honest investing, without hype and trallala...and proof that you can make half a million even with average earnings...

What a pity. I have the feeling that all the community drivers of the last few months are all pulling out. But if that makes you feel better, then go for it. All that matters is that you don't feel compelled to write anything here. It's supposed to be fun, and if it's no longer fun at some point, then there's no point 😐
Thank you for your many contributions and your time ❤️

I wish you all the best, especially good health and a lucky hand with your investments.
Maybe you'll find your way back in time and thank you for having a bit of fun with it.👍🏼

Nice to hear from you. While I no longer buy individual stocks and therefore don't have much of an eye for them anyway, I found it inspiring to hear from you. The letter carrier who invests big 😁 The main thing is that you don't get tired of investing. I'd be delighted if you continued to contribute in the meantime. Maybe in a different way? Maybe as a commentator and when you feel like it, a post with your thoughts?

But give yourself some peace and quiet. There is no obligation to post, you should get something out of participation (enjoyment, gaining experience and/or sharing) and others as well ❤️

I only experienced a very small part of your social media time, but I would still like to say thank you from the bottom of my heart and all the best, because you constantly scattered colorful pieces of the mosaic. We will definitely miss you.

Social media has its place, especially when it comes to sharing experiences. However, "real" life - and this is also an insight that grows with age - does not take place online. When the power goes out, other people and things matter. You don't leave in resentment, you simply move on.

Good luck with your private ETF and all the best to you personally!

Dear @Simpson,

A break is always good. However, you usually come back to the medium.
We would of course be delighted and look forward to a sign of life from you from time to time. In any case, I wish you all the best and maximum returns!

A real shame, but of course understandable. Many thanks for the entertaining contributions over the years. It's definitely going to be duller here now. All the best 🙂.
P.S.: If there are any problems with dividend collections, please keep in touch as always, Don Homer 😎😉💪🏻
