Bridger Pennington spent $30,000 on an event that seemed worthless for three years, then suddenly paid off with investor and partner introductions. Sometimes the return on networking takes longer than you expect.

I went to this $30,000 event. Really nothing fruitful came from it for a year and 2 years. And then 3 and a half years later, a bunch of investors, partners, people— I was like, oh, remember we were in that group 3 years ago? And we were— and then we're like, oh, introductions. It was very interesting. I didn't see the fruits of it for like 3 years. And I'm like, oh, now I'm like, that $30 grand was the best money I ever spent.
