I’m still recovering from a long week at FinCon and trying to get back into the swing of things at work and here on the blog. The natural thing at this point would be to write a FinCon recap post, but a lot of people have already written about their own FinCon experience, and in […]

Why I Spend Money Attending Conferences
Over the past year, I’ve spent a pretty decent chunk of change attending various conferences and meetups.
