Learning Scheduled for this Summer
June 11th, 2008
Though most people just take the summer off, I don’t. The reason that I don’t is I believe that I should be learning something new whenever the opportunity is available to me. This can mean that I attend seminars, conferences, and even participate in online web events.
For example, last year, I attended a VMWare event learning more about virtual machines. I have been interested in them for the longest time, and when it was finally available up here, I had to jump at the chance. We made a family vacation of it and I went to the conference while we were on holidays.
This year, I am looking forward to the BetterTrades conference about investing. Not only will I be able to learn new ways to maximize the return on my portfolio, but again, we will be on holidays that week, and I will go to it as well.
Needless to say, I will come out of the summer a little bit smarter, and that is just the way that I like it.
