First, thank you for being part of our incredible journey. We've hit a remarkable milestone - 290 episodes, over 130,000 downloads, and five years of engaging conversations. And guess what? We're not slowing down. This isn't a farewell; it's a commitment to continue delivering outstanding content.
Speaking of engaging people, recently, I had the pleasure of attending the Treasury Management Association of New York conference. It was fantastic to connect with some of our podcast listeners, including the amazing Monique Aristizabal. Monique, it was a pleasure meeting you, and I'm thrilled to have you as part of our community.
Shoutout time! 📣
Ricardo Schuh you're a rockstar, always giving our episodes a thumbs up. Your support means the world
Joseph Lai your continued listenership is much appreciated
Oh, and a random encounter in Barcelona - it was quite a surprise! To that friendly stranger who recognized my voice, and said hello as I was leaving the Rest Rooms! A big thank you for tuning in, even if our chat was brief. I'd love to connect maybe in a different venue.
Now, let's talk about what's coming up. AFP San Diego is just around the corner. I'll be speaking on October 24th at 2PM, it's going to be an incredible session!
But here's the exciting part: I'll be in San Diego a bit early, catching John Cena's keynote. Can't wait for that!
After John's speech, I'll be hanging around the ICD stand, and here's an invitation to all of you. If you're a podcast listener, come and meet me, share your thoughts, and let's have a face-to-face conversation. Your feedback and ideas are invaluable in shaping the future of the show.
Now, one more thing before I go - our Q3 salary survey is launching. We're all about the numbers here, and this survey is no exception. It's grown to include 1,280 participants, and we want you to update our details. Visit: https://treasuryrecruitment.com/salarysurvey/
It'll take just a couple of minutes and your input helps us provide valuable insights into the treasury profession.
That's it for now but stay tuned. More exciting updates are on the horizon, including the Treasury Career Corner live event in London on the November 23rd.
I won't say, "Let's get on with the show," because this is the show. Until next time, take care, and see you soon! 👋🎉

He has tried hard, he's done rather well. He's got out to people. [00:03:00] Within two days, he had 106 people say they wanted to come to the event. And we're still six weeks away.
[:
[00:03:25] So yeah, definitely come along. But before that AFP San Diego. So speaking on the Tuesday, the 24th of October at 2 PM, follow the link, come to the session.

[:
[00:04:16] It would be great to see you. I'd love to have a catch up and it was quite magical, actually, to meet lots of people coming. I love your podcast. Love that I don't get to hear from you. This is a one way conversation a lot of the time, and it would just be great to actually meet you face to face and hear about your thoughts and any of the sessions and things I could improve on.
[:
[00:05:02] Q2, great. We compared the two. Now we're into Q3, obviously is expanding. We're now 1, 280 people. Well, if you've done it before, I need you to update your details. You're going to get an email about that. If you haven't done it, do it. Go to treasurysalary. com, please. Oh, God. How much did it cost you? Two minutes of your time, if that's the first ever time you've done it.
[:
[00:05:46] S. The U. S. Is the one that's growing the most. So if you want that, I know that there's some of my rivals. They do these surveys that just don't mean anything when they say, Oh, Treasury manager get played 120, 000 to [00:06:00] 180, 000. So what doesn't mean anything? You don't mean it. How many people did you survey to do that?
[:
[00:06:25] I want to run it again. We're going to be away, but we're going to launch it this week, middle of October. So when I have the results out in the next couple of weeks, but anyway, that's enough for me for now. I'm going to see you AFP San Diego, then see you in London. Treasure Creek on the live may also have another us trip.
[:
[00:07:05] What could possibly go wrong? Anyway, thanks very much. And I won't say let's get on with the show. Cause this is just, is the show. All right. See you guys.
