Come to the Wealthcamp conference this Saturday in San Francisco

May 28 5 Comments latest by FlipSideInvest

I’ll be speaking at WealthCamp this Saturday, May 31st in San Francisco, and I wanted to invite you to attend. WealthCamp is a conference focusing on personal finance (see the website). I’ll be speaking for an hour on “How to get started,” which will cover some of the most common questions I get:

• Tired of paying your bank fees? How to negotiate so you won’t pay your bank any fees…ever.
• How to set up a budget you’ll actually use
• How to make more money by investing — including the one investment I’d recommend to everyone

I Will Teach You To Be Rich readers get a $25 discount on the WealthCamp admission fee. To get the discount, use coupon code “berich” on the WealthCamp order form.

Btw, I’m told there will be free lunch and other gifts, too.

Sign up for WealthCamp online. Erica, the creator of the conference, will be watching the comments on this blog post in case you have any questions about WealthCamp. Hope to see you this Saturday morning.

If you’re visiting from today’s Yahoo Finance article on 8 Rules to Break To Build Wealth, welcome.

I’m a recent Stanford grad and this is a blog on personal finance and personal entrepreneurship for college students, recent college grads, and everyone else. (Featured in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Boston Globe, US News & World Report Online, etc.)

This blog is me ranting about a few things and trying to get the points across. Getting started is more important than being the smartest person in the room. Making mistakes is ok. Action is more important than reading 50 blogs. Ordinary actions get ordinary results. And there’s a difference between being sexy and being Rich.

3 simple ways to get started managing your money

• Learn what to do from someone who had $1,300 in overdraft fees
• Here’s how I set up my financial accounts
• Cook at home, you lazy bastard

Be realistic about getting rich

• Conscious Spending: How My Friend Spends $21,000/year Going Out
• The $28,000 Question: Why Are We All Hypocrites About Weddings?
• Cost vs. value: Why used cars aren’t always the right choice (and why I bought a new car)

Avoid the financial pundits

• Bad advice: “Don’t invest; you can’t beat the pros”
• Chicken Little and Kooks Who Don’t Know What They’re Talking About

Investing

• The drop-dead easy math behind why starting today is more important than any other factor
• The World’s Easiest Guide to Setting Up a Retirement Account

Personal Entrepreneurship

• Set smaller goals: impress friends, get girls, lose weight
• Barriers are your enemy
• The Myth of the Great Idea
