I will give my CPA a shot (he's an extended family member so Christmas dinner will be awkward if I don't :)) but I definitely know where to find you because ultimately I want to make good financial decisions.

I know this is dinner time, they have a food truck there with pretty decent options.

Yes, I am still waiting to buy you dinner at the Trout Farm Inn the next time you are in town (when are you coming through - seems like you have to now the Trout Farm is back in business).

We have a few partners that we had dinner with December last year and have not had anything that is a good fit for them just yet-- we are actually interviewing other appropriate GPs to partner with before approaching them, especially seeing as the deals of this scale are quite large (MF).

On top of that I started to interact with people in the life and a simple dinner or grabbing a drink will be a course in itself.

Saturday is popular, but some lunches and dinners as well.

There are also not enough pots and pans in the kitchen to prepare a Holiday dinner.

They'll eat out quite a bit with their barnmates for dinner, but will likely do breakfast at home and pack coolers to keep at the showgrounds for lunch.

And there sure are a lot of people in this thread who've never been to a Lifestyles free seminar, case study (and the dinner/happy hour afterwards, where you can mingle and ask questions) or the two-day course. 

That said though paying 20% for 25 worth of wings and beer with my friends is much more manageable than spending 20% taking my wife out to a nice $100/$150 dinner and really that is low compared to some restaurants I just can't see myself going to.
