    Thanks for organising a great meetup @Taku Ekanayake, and bringing name tags which are a great help! I agree its a great venue - enough space for everyone to mingle, and yummy food. I had the green curry and it was delish. Lovely chatting to those I met tonight!

    Thanks @Taku Ekanayake for organising - as always an excellent turnout! Given the numbers we have today soon Shark Hotel will not be able to fit all of the enthusiastic PChat members anymore ;)

    And don't forget to work on the number of ladies next time :D

    @Taku Ekanayake , was a very good meet up with some familiar faces and some new. It's amazing how this community openly shares knowledge almost like a Wikipedia but only friendlier :)

    Thanks for organising !

    Thanks @Taku Ekanayake for organizing this fantastic meetup. As a newbie I went in feeling like a fish out of water and met some great people with an amazing attitude to share knowledge. I've learnt so much in this one evening that no books could have taught me and I feel I have the motivation and confidence to start my investing journey.
    With gratitude to all

    What an unbelievable turn out we had last night! We counted over 40 ppl during it's peak. More than what I was expecting.

    I met so many new faces and I noticed everyone seemed to be mingling and learning a lot.

    It was a very diverse group from first home buyers, new investors to some seasoned investors, mortgage brokers, buyers agents, solicitors, accountants and many more.

    I certainly had some great chats and got me thinking about where and what to do next!

    Very motivated bunch!

    Looking forward to catching up in Round 3!

    Thanks for organising @Taku Ekanayake

    Prior to the night I thought of adding potentially one more to the portfolio but got inspired to set my sights a little higher. Now aiming for 3 more before putting a lid on my accumulation phase.
