Unfortunately, this is why I haven't made it to nearly as many
meetings as I'd like to have over the years. I'm self-employed, with
a very small firm, and it's nearly impossible for me to afford it.
However, I'm looking forward to this coming March. With the event
being only two hours from my home, it'll be a lot easier.... well,
except that gas prices will probably cost me almost as much as a cheap
hotel.

If at first you don't succeed, stick to what you know best so that you
can make enough money to pay someone else to do it for you.
