I keep in contact with a few members on the side. I've met people on other finance forums, but not this one yet. I plan to attend the NYC meetup at some point next time I'm in the city.

What other good finance forums are out there?

analystforum.com used to be good, but it is dead now in the Off Topic (Water Cooler). 

We had a big meetup in NYC one year. It was all the legends meeting up. We started at The Standard then went to Meatpacking. I just remember ending up at some place that was charging $30 Red Bull vodkas. lol f-ing NYC.

Pretty sure people at my office know I post on here (FUCK BAMA). Also, some people on here know who I am and we converse outside the site. Recently made a purchase due to a recommendation from someone here

 

Met one of my now closest friends at a WSO event, plus some other nice folks where we lightly keep in touch (holiday wishes, etc).

Are we bringing back meetups in 2023?
