In yesterday’s math equation regarding possibly speaking on Vancouver Island in October, the usual decision making criteria:
Date, location, fee, client.
Date: October 14. October is still a strong hurricane month. Hurricane Milton on October 5-10, 2024. Strongest hurricane on record. Ever. We raced at the last minute from Banff to Orlando and i swore i would never get in that situation again. Ever. This is why we did not stay in Glacier last September nor plan to visit this September. Nope.
Location: My math conservatively shows, with no travel glitches, a 17-hour travel day. Even if split into two days, that’s two 8+ hour travel days just to get to the hotel. Nope.
Fee: Reasonable retail price. However, subtracting the 20% speakers bureau fee, the travel expenses, the Canadian withholding tax (new), and my IRS tax obligation…nope.
Client: This one is the only definite win. A definite yes. Big Speak’s Tracy and Amy are wonderful.
