If you're in the Chicago area, join us this Sunday 4pm-7pm for an amazing night of talks and networking. Get off the laptop and come meet Skoolers in 3D! Our featured speakers are: @MJ Berst- "How to Rock Your Budget" @Oscar Setiawan - "How to Go Viral on Facebook." The event will be held at Oscar's podcast studio downtown near the United Center 🏙️ It's free to attend, but you must DM @Steve Gast to RSVP and get the address to the studio. See you Sunday 🔥

💥 2025 is almost in the books but we're just getting warmed up! ✅ In 2026 we'll be aiming to have official IRL with Presenters every month giving killer talks like the ones @Ryan Bakke, CPA and @Krista Brea gave (Part 2 of their videos coming this later this week). 📆 No official date yet but roughly mid-January and will feature a talk from Real Estate expert @Oscar Setiawan, owner of the killer (Soon to Be Officially Named) podcast studio. Did we mention he owns the whole building, complete with rental and air BnB units? The man knows his Real Estate 🔥 We're also going to be doing as many less formal fun hangouts as we can: ☃️ NEXT HANGOUT JANUARY 2nd, 8pm-10pm Ice Skating at Maggie Daly Park Reserve Your Spot Here 👋 After that we are looking for hosts to add events to the calendar. @Kenneth Richardson has already volunteered to host a rug making workshop and we can't wait! If you have ideas for events and are willing to help host them, comment below or send me a DM. 🎉 Happy New Year!! 🎉

Thank you everyone who helped rock our first Film N Feast! It was truly amazing, we’ll definitely be doing another one in the future 🎥🔥 What’s next? Good question! I’m looking into some things but would love to hear from you, especially if you have venue options or a talk you want to share with the group. Drop what you got in the comments, or DM me and/or @Ryan Bakke, CPA, thanks!
