It’s official!

#FinCon13 will take place in St. Louis, MO, from October 17-20.

You can count on beautiful St. Louis to offer perfect weather in mid-October, and holding the conference in this Midwestern jewel of a town means we can all enjoy affordable hotel expenses throughout the conference.

More details about the conference, the hotel, and speakers will be forthcoming over the next few weeks. Be sure to check back here for specifics about the hotel, since you will want to book your room through FinCon in order to take advantage of our special rate.

We can’t wait to see you all in October!

Note that this year, we will be offering a limited-opportunity Boot Camp on October 16-17, with participation open to 100 bloggers hoping to have a value-added, extended FinCon experience. The regular conference will begin on October 17 and is, as always, open to anyone and everyone in the financial blogosphere.

The timing couldn't be any better for me--right after the deadine for individual extensions so there's no reason for me to miss it!

So excited! I'll be asking for the time off soon! Does it start Thursday evening or morning? And the boot camp starts Wednesday morning? Just want to make sure I ask for the right time off :)

 Money Life and More It starts Thursday at Noon with registration, tours, meetups, and a community service event. Thursday night is the welcome reception. Many people choose to "start" their conference then, but we have the afternoon options for those who want to engage early. Yes, the bootcamp will be a Wed morning at 9am deal.

This sounds awesome! Can you tell us more about the boot camp? 

Philip Taylor 18 pts moderator

 MoneySideOfLife Full post and email on this coming within the next two weeks. But it will be a day and a half: the 16th through mid day on the 17th. It will be limited to 100 bloggers. Content will likely be split into beginner and advanced and will be more intimate, workshop style. Likely includes a few meals and will cost $99.
