Are you ready to meet face-to-face with the best and brightest business authors in the world? Then look no further than Inside the Mind of an Author, my new speaker series and meet-up in Los Angeles. On Monday, March 28, 2016, I invite you to spend the evening with bestselling author Michael Ellsberg (The Education of Millionaires and The Last Safe Investment) as he presents a blueprint for building “True Wealth,” which is the ability to generate not just financial value but also the experiences you cherish most—security, freedom, creative expression, and love.    Here’s what Peter Thiel, co-founder of PayPal, creator of the Thiel Fellowship, says about Michael and his book, The Education of Millionaires:  “Michael Ellsberg’s book is provocative and wise. Tuition is skyrocketing, job prospects are grim, and the race for bogus credentials has turned into a runaway status competition for positional goods. The Education of Millionaires offers a renegade path for anyone who wants vital skills without the crushing burden of student debt.” There are two ways to connect with Michael: the VIP experience which includes dinner with the author (limited to first come first serve), or regular admission to the event, both include a signed book. I look forward to seeing you on March 28 for Inside the Mind of an Author. – Alicia Dunams     FAQs What are my transport/parking options getting to the event?
