Do learn a little something most of the time and have a very nice dinner in one of the better restaurants in the bubble.
Amazing that I will be the one to ask the presenter is educational background and work history and have to literally cross examine him/her to get this info.

I bet the presenters are quite evasive. Some may be selling annuities but never use the word.
Do you ever get invited back?
At subsequent dinners you may find yourself as popular with the hosts as successful card counters at casinos!
