Real talk for real women (and everyone!) who want to feel better about their money.
"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 Wednesday, June 3 at Vantage Venues, downtown Toronto.
Pour, Plan & Prosper
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.
Look, we here at The Wine Sisters are drinkers, not bankers, so while we've got the wine (and yep, there will be lots – honesty requires fortification), we're bringing in some of the best and brightest financial experts we know for an evening that pairs fantastic sips with even better financial wisdom.
And because every great conversation happens over great food, enjoy expertly crafted bites from the Vantage Venues chefs.
While the event shines a spotlight on women and wealth, anyone ready to take charge of their financial future is welcome—come sip, learn, and get real plan to make the most of your money.
Let's go, girls. (And fellas.)
