Comments on: I’m guest writing at the New York Times this week http://www.iwillteachyoutoberich.com/blog/guest-writer-new-york-times/ Personal finance blog for college students, recent graduates and everyone else -- including entrepreneurship -- for getting rich. Featured in the Wall Street Journal and New York Times. Thu, 18 Mar 2010 05:17:37 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc hourly 1 By: Mike Dill http://www.iwillteachyoutoberich.com/blog/guest-writer-new-york-times/comment-page-1/#comment-103260 Mike Dill Tue, 14 Jul 2009 02:01:37 +0000 http://www.iwillteachyoutoberich.com/?p=2925#comment-103260 Hi Ramit! Ryan Geist recommended me over to your blog and I am so thankful he did so. I'm a recent college grad currently working for Johnson & Johnson in their financial leadership development program. Just starting out, I'm looking to make all the right moves in regards to my savings plan, 401k, etc. I've made the mistake recently of becoming suckered into investing in penny stocks, hoping for big, short-term returns but have found myself losing money very quickly. I'm very thankful Ryan led me to your site and look forward to learning from you. Regards, Mike Dill Hi Ramit!

I need to open an account and want to maximize it, but with various fees, monthly charges, low interest, etc. it's tough to figure out the best place to stash the cash. Any ideas?

Looks like you're getting a ton of well-earned opportunities. People need to hear what you have to say! I think toning it down for the Times was the right choice. That being said, I throroughly enjoy the cursing, so please don't take it away from us! Ramit –

I have to kind of disagree on the whole real estate thing with you. You are half right about investing in real estate. Buying a house and letting it sit might be a poor investment compared to stocks but how about renting the property out? You cover a big chunk of the mortgage if not all of it with the rent payments. Tons of people do real estate and they wouldn't be making a living off of it if all they earn is 1.5%. Thoughts? You are doing big things Ramit!
