FinCon Meetup in L.A.
FinCon Local St. Louis – Thanks to Jenny from The Jenny Pincher for organizing this group. No date has been set, but I know there are plenty of bloggers in the area so I know it will be a nice meetup.
FinCon Local Denver – Jason Steele, regular contributor to Wise Bread and other financial blogs is planning the mile high meetup. I think the consensus location has become Lala’s Wine Bar + Pizzeria located at 410 E. 7th Ave. Denver at 2PM on Sunday January 22d.
FinCon Local Atlanta – Thanks to Andrea from Smart Money Chicks for setting this one up. The date is January 10th at Marlow’s Tavern in Midtown. It is super easy to get to and parking is FREE.
