Trading Workshop Possibility - Skunny & Bobokus

I think I speak for Bo as well on this.

There seems to be enough interest to start talking about more specific ideas. The most concerning is where. Because we are going to a hotel to learn, we really shouldn't care where it is. The focus should be on a city that has a big hub so flights are cheap but not too big (like Chicago) where the hotel costs and taxi service is much more expensive than the air fair.(been there) No kidding, $120 round trip air fair and over $200 in taxi service.

I guess we could explore the idea of more than one workshop. One on the west and one on the east and one down the middle...lol. Not to open that can of worms.
Vegas is nice too.

Re: Chicago.....happens to be my home base. Expenses may not be too bad if something were set up at one of the hotels near the airport (downtown can be costly!!). If something were set up near the airport....some hotels may be able to offer free or inexpensive shuttle service from O' Hare.

A block of rooms with conference room......cheap transport from airport....if interested in the idea of a major hub w/o some of the hassle and expense, I would be happy to make a few calls.......let me know......

Virgin Islands or Cancun works as well!!!

I appreciate the offer Brunite, Chicago could be a good option if the entire package is cost efficient. Whatever info you get is always helpful. Send it to me on email if you will.


Maybe there is a multi millionaire reading this thread that has a 50 room mansion for us to stay in.....on a tropical island???? LOL

Again, if it's cost efficient for most, we can go anywhere.

CHARLOTTE, NC!!

There's Charlotte-Douglas Intl airport, tons of hotels with meeting/seminar facilities close by or in the downtown and surrounding areas. Tons of good restaurants and beautiful Carolina Blue skies!!

Amazingly enough, I know of at least two active thread participants who just happen to live within a short drive of the airport....

Believe me, Charlotte is nice. I have a place not too too far from there, about 4 hours. Every time I'm near SC, I make a trip there.
I dream, therefore I become.

Vegas has always had the "distractions" but it is still the preferred choice for all the big conventions, easy air access, many hotels and convention/banquet halls to choose from, easy to get around (transpo), and plennny of after forex entertainment......

as far as the major hubs..........United Air (Denver), Delta (Atlanta & Dallas Ft. Worth)......Chicago's O'Hare in my personal experience.....HORRIBLE, right up there with the NY/NJ Airports.

I told you I'd be there if I had to crawl, well hubby says I won't have to do that, he committing the funds, but some place with a train station could be a plus, but what the heck, I'll fly if I have to.

Something to think about!!!! Many of us are night owls, could we start later in the morning and work later into the evening. That would be really awesome!

Thanks (not a Man-hug, btw)

LOL, night owls for sure. I'm usually reading Skunny's morning posts before I go to bed at night.

Hi Bobokus & Skunny,

Thank you so much for all the amazing stuff!

Digitally recorded media is the best thing i can think of for those of us who, for various reasons, couldn't be there in person.

Me, I'm very interested in the Trading Workshop but am residing outside the U.S. of A..

I believe there'll be an overwhelming demand for the video and i'm sure even those who were there would love to have it.

Cheers!!!!

Sounds good to me! It's gotta be warmer than Chicago, this time of year. And according to Google maps, a mere 16 hour drive, after I take the ferry ride from my island

My wife suggested if we go a little later in the year we could even get on a cruise at a good price. (She is a travel agent so she is informed!).

She said otherwise, L.A., San Francisco, Dallas, and Minneapolis/St Paul probably offer the best hubs (which means cheaper air fare for those that don't know), with hotels/restaurants close to the airports, which should cut costs with taxis etc.

The cruise would mean all food and drinks (barring alcoholic beverages) were provided within the cost, so that may even out prices more. With a group of people I think we get cheaper room rates too.

If we are talking cruises than nothing compares to leaving from the ports of southern florida.... fort lauderdale and miami offer the best and most affordable...IMWO

Well , I'm in Montreal Canada so, any where in north america is ok with me. Florida would be cool, New York even better. Depending on the cost of the workshop (add plane + hotel + food + fun ), I should be there, otherwise I'll surely buy the video.
