It’s Feels Good to Be Appreciated...

The March 30th Stocktoberfest schedule of speakers and fireside chats is now live (scroll down). I am really proud of this lineup. Most importantly, the evening ‘Cashtag’ awards should be a fantastic party and celebration of the social financial web. If you are in NYC and you like stocks and markets…please join us. Taylor Becker and Pierce Crosby did a hell of a job organizing a big event in the big city.

Nancy really nailed me in the opening:

Howard Lindzon is an irreverant buzz machine who powers through wall-to-wall- meetings on five milligrams of Adderall.
