Are you guys down for November 3rd at 12:30? I tend to like the carolina ale house in Cary. Plenty of seating and good food.

@DreamPursuit You'd have to leave a bit early. Takes about 3 1/2 hours to get to cary from where you're at. You can stop by my place and we'll ride to the restaurant at the same time if you'd like.

Wish I could go, just saw this post today and have some obligations this weekend I have already signed up for!

I am in Winston Salem, if anyone on here is around the area, would be glad to meet up.

If not, hope to meet some of you guys soon.

Since I have a long drive I am going to head out pretty soon. I don't usually watch sports, but if I get there early maybe I could find a table with a view of a TV showing the Air Force vs. Army game. How many are we expecting? I see 4 for sure.

I got a table for four. As you come in the door make two right turns. It’s right in the corner.

Fun meetup guys. Thanks for coming out @DreamPursuit @NateKruse @SouthernCharm and @Tom.V

Hopefully we can meet up again soon!
Agreed. I had a great time and would definitely go to another one.

@Ravens_Shadow, I’m thinking about stealing your idea and starting a new line of low-budget office furniture. Here’s my first prototype. What do you think?

Like @Tom.V suggested, I might add some leg holes and a heating duct from the laptop. :rofl:

For real though, hearing about everyone’s successes motivated me to step up my business efforts. @Ravens_Shadow and @Tom.V you guys have made some impressive progress since the last meetup.

Funnily enough, that box is EXTREMELY similar to the one I used as a desk for quite some time. :rofl:

Time for your progress to shoot through the roof now!

It was refreshing to finally meet some other like minded people who are getting sh!t done. The ideas and thought processes were insightful. It was well worth the 3 hour drive. I look forward to the next meet up.

PS: @NateKruse Does that "desk" have that fancy foam reinforcement that Nick was talking about? Lol

That makes for a good story. It shows your dedication to building your business and your army of freedom fighters. Disciplined saving is definitely another area I need to work on.

It was good to meet you. Thanks for coming all the way up. I'm definitely motivated to start getting more sh!t done after that meetup.

Of course! It's very sturdy. You will hardly notice you are working on a cardboard box.

@NateKruse - I think you are on to something....if you flip that baby on its side, it converts into a standing desk too : )

Great meeting you all. That was definitely a solid injection of motivation into my week. Really appreciate the banter and the advice provided by the group.

@Luke12321 it was awesome meeting you in Winston-Salem as well. We'll have to get you out to the broader meetup next time!

A pleasure as always gentlemen! @Ravens_Shadow @NateKruse always nice catching up with you guys. Nate, COMFORT IS THE ENEMY!

@DreamPursuit @SouthernCharm Was nice meeting both of you! I know it was a long drive for both of you, but hopefully you guys took something positive from it. Even if just a little motivation. If either of you want to chat feel free to shoot me a PM. Happy to help however I can.

I’m in Asheboro right now meeting a manufacturer. Tentative on the 1/12 -

Will be in this meeting for a couple of hours, then taking the First Lady antique shopping. Gotta buzz back to the coast after. Anybody close?

It’s too late for today, but what part of the coast are you referring to?
