In a typical TBB fashion I say there is no difference at all and I agree with Mommy Points that one should pick a seminar more convenient!

It's pretty much the same speakers, the same stuff.

I am getting tired of them...I do not like paying $$ to socialize as I do not learn anything new from the speakers. It is all getting a bit corporate for me. What is next? Entourages for speakers? Encores? (lol).

Two markets here: Veterans for socializing/networking (we can do that in free DOs you know) and newbies who "discover" a whole new way of learning how to travel for "free" and tell all their friends and family about how to do it too

Nice to finally read "excess proceeds" donated to charity and not just "proceeds"!!

My 2 cents
