Hey y'all -

I just wanted to say hi from the Elite Retreat!

We are about ready to start - first up is Shoemoney. I met all the leaders last night and today and they are all very sweet and welcoming. Today is packed with speaking and small group meetings. The attendees I have met so far have been incredibly interesting and passionate.

More later... I hope to have some pictures and videos.

Dang she's fast! The ones from last night should be up later. We had a BLAST.

I will do a full update when it's all over, but what I will say now is that you should be saving NOW to attend next year. Seriously, you should. I will explain more later.

**petchay** · 12-19-2006, 12:11 PM

I'll try.. :001_huh:

To be honest, if you have to ask that question, this isn't for you. When you get to the point when you can appreciate being able to sit at a table with Lee, Aaron, Shoemoney, and Dave to talk about what YOU are working on and how to reach YOUR goals, you will be surprised that it doesn't cost more...

(hopefully, that comes off correctly...)

TH · 12-19-2006, 12:52 PM

yea well, maybe it's not much for you all; like a 1/10 of months earnings.. but I think, people like me earning, like.. 1/100 to 1/1000 of your earnings can ask that

what do you learn? how to place your google ads?

Tom, why so much bitterness?

**LeeD** · 12-19-2006, 02:25 PM

Networking. You pay to meet people that can help you in the future. You are gaining contacts and friends.

I'm not bitter. Just asking

Maybe I payed it too when I earned more, and when I didn't had to school

**ghoti** · 12-19-2006, 07:30 PM

I think it's called "Elite Retreat" for a reason.

You guys aren't going to wait a whole year to have another one, are you?

**garg** · 12-19-2006, 08:23 PM

I guess it's like college/university. You pay to meet people basically

**DogFaceBoy** · 12-19-2006, 09:27 PM

I was seriously thinking about attending this event, but just couldn't find time in my schedule. Hope it goes good for you guys! Thanks for the pictures Andrea.

**jakerz** · 12-19-2006, 09:35 PM
