Where

Vantage Venues, 150 King St. W., downtown Toronto. 

"Baby, you are so money, and you don't even know it." Swingers

So let's fix that. 

Join us for an evening of wine and wealth Thursday, April 24, at Vantage Venues, downtown Toronto. 

Grab your Chardonnay and your notebook, we're getting honest with our money, so we can fix what needs to be fixed, lock-down what we're doing right, and arm ourselves for when things get tough. (Because, as Billy will tell you, when the going gets tough...)

Look, we here at The Wine Sisters are drinkers, not bankers, so while we're bringing the wine (and yep, there will be lots, honesty requires fortification), we brought in some of the best and brightest female financial experts we know. And we promise after hearing their words of wisdom you will leave inspired, empowered, confident...and with a real plan to make the most of your money.

Let's go, girls.
