Right,

Meeting this Thursday evening to make a start. We’ve got a good but smallish venue so numbers are limited. All of us who met up at the weekend will be there and I’ve already sent out invites to everyone who emailed over the last two weeks.

So just a few spaces left – who’s interested? This meeting is primarily about getting the…[Read more]

Some feedback after this weekend

Firstly thanks to those who braved the rain and post-match hangovers [:0)] to come along. Not a huge turn out but what an interesting bunch of characters!

I was pleasantly surprised at the reception to the goal setting / budgeting exercise I proposed, so next get together is this Thursday (27/11) @ 7PM so that…[Read more]

Tadline, (where do these names come from!)

there’s a guy down in Melbourne, RiffRaff, starting a similar group, check out his topic in this area

Cheers, Tom

Nice one RiffRaff let me know how you go in Melbourne. I’ve got a few takers for the one in Sydney this weekend. I’ll post a post-mortem on the Forum Monday/Tuesday

Cheers Tom (Vivarto)

Hi Guys,

Neither Saturday or Sunday are going to suit every one so I’ll do both and you turn up to which ever suits you best. Given this split let’s keep it simple this week and just:

1) Meet up put and faces to names;
2) Decide what…[Read more]

MonkeyMagic (now where did that name come from!)

I’m not proposing investing as a group – though that is always an option if the right thing comes along (I’ve always liked the idea of JV’s). The group is a cheer squad, a sounding board, a way to beat procrastination, a spur to keep moving forward, a bolster for the timid, a brake for the…[Read more]

Sorry guys

If you’ve already emailed me about coming on Saturday, I have just had my invite email bounce as our server is down. I posted before it bounced back – you should have had a ‘personal’ invite before seeing on the forum – bloody technology…

I re-send the emails tomorrow

and yes, I’ve booked the cafe…

Newbie Investors group

Venue
I’ve booked a table in a quiet part of a cafe in Newtown for 10AM this coming Saturday, November 22. (Email vivarto@bigpond.com for venue so I can keep track of numbers) I’ve had this recommended by one of our number, I haven’t been there so I can’t vouch for the place! They only ask that we spend about $5 per head,…[Read more]

To all you newbies out there (especially in
Sydney) I’m organising a get together next Saturday here in Sydney for all of us that have way more questions than answers. We all have a lot to learn but none more so than those of us starting out. I don’t have many answers but I do believe that pooling what we do know will enrich us all – which is…[Read more]

Ok,

Got a few takers for Sydney, (and a lot of interest in the rest of the country) just a week or so before we get together so I’ll re-extend the invite; if you’re a raw beginner, still on your training wheels or on your way but realise there’s a few basic issues that still need to be addressed in a formal-ish manner – then get in touch -…[Read more]

RiffRaff,

Firstly thanks for replying to the post, I haven’t had a a huge response and I was begining to think I must come across as some kind of weirdo!

As I said in my post I’m a complete raw beginner, just starting out. However I recognise this and I’ve decided to take a structured approach rather than just take stabs at different things.…[Read more]
