Yes. I agree on all the benefits. But, I feel for any regular developer like me, around $1700, is way too costly for a 3 day session.

Hi Pinal,
Enjoy the PASS Summit, I would love to go but do not have sponsorship. Share your views/thoughts when you get the time.

Your comment is very valuable and I 100% agree.

Pinal, i was half-afraid you wouldn’t make it since i did not see a blog post until today…there are so few people from India (not indians but people actually working there :) Welcome again and hope to catch up with you.

To those who want to know why, I believe Pinal has adequately explained. This is my 8th time in a row and am very proud of it!! I am lucky to be still sponsored and of course living in the States helps but I would pay out of my pocket and go if I had to, there is no matching community event for SQL Server enthusiasts. We do not grow in vaccuum, we grow with fellow professionals and as a community. I have grown, seen many others grow and prosper in this community and that is my biggest payoff from the conference.

Thanks

Malathi
