Hey all,

We wanted to invite all of you to our Game Monetization meetup, "Money Talks". It's going to be held in downtown San Francisco so you will need to be from the Bay Area to attend, though if there is sufficient demand then we will consider doing a live stream as well. I've pasted the description below, and let me know if you have any questions by replying below. Thanks!
