Scrooge Strategy

I’ll be on tour in these cities over the next few weeks — meet up?

Yo — I’ll be doing a media tour in a bunch of cities over the next few weeks. Most of it will be local media (TV, radio, newspaper, etc). Sign up below to get details on whichever city you’re in.

One thing I’ve noticed is that as my book has gotten bigger, it’s easier to retreat and only deal with pre-arranged media, etc. On the contrary, I’m going to try to be even more public sometimes — like trying to meet up for dinners when I can.

Note: Since most people who read this book don’t go to book stores for book talks, I’m largely skipping book stores and events. However, I might set up some dinners / coffee in certain cities, so if you’re interested, add yourself below.

Los Angeles — April 21, 2009

    Ramit, when you’re in PDX, assuming you’re downtown, make sure you have time for a quick jaunt to Voodoo’s donuts. Trust me, it’s worth it!

    How come you’re passing over New York City? Maybe we can persuade you to at least visit Brooklyn.

    Guys, I was in NYC all last week but was too busy to meet up. Next time!

    See some of the press I did here: http://iwillteachyoutoberich.com/press

    May I suggest WineStyles (1240 S. Michigan) for your visit to Chicago? It’s a great place to save money, since you can purchase wine at retail prices and enjoy at the bar. Why spend $7-9 a glass at other bars, when you and a couple buddies can purchase an entire bottle for $15 and enjoy 4 glasses. That’s a quick 50% savings!

    yay philly! i’ll bring at least a few friends who i’m trying to keep under my “personal finance mentor willingly or no” wing…

    April 21, 2009

    Oh and to be clear – I don’t work there. It’s just my usual hang out as I cut my nightlife costs down.

  13. 13
    April 21, 2009

    Glad to hear that you are coming to Chicago! I would love to meet up!

  14. 14
    April 21, 2009

    I’m in to hang out when you’re in Chicago. Amit’s suggestion is good — I haven’t been there but have heard good things, and it’s close to the Roosevelt El stop (Orange/Red/Green) plus a ton of buses.

    April 21, 2009

    Shoot! I’ll be in Chicago on the 1st (not Philly) and leaving Chicago on the 5th (for Philly)….the fates have spoken, it seems.

    April 21, 2009

    dinner in Philly? Cheesteaks, Pasta, Cannoli’s. What do you think? May 1st.

    Come to Boston sometime!

    Damn it Ramit – you’re such a pimp, everyone wants to hang out with you! Now if only there were more responses from girls…..

    April 21, 2009

    Ditto on stopping in at VooDoo Donut when you’re in Portland.
    And even though you’re avoiding bookstores, definitely stop in at Powell’s Books – America’s largest indy bookstore.

    Good luck on the tour~

    Hey, Ramit, come to Phoenix before it gets too hot!

    April 21, 2009

    Where will you be in Dallas? Do you eat meat? If you want a kick ass prime steak at a fraction of the cost of the fancy schmancy places then I have a great suggestion. The local prime meat distributor that supplies the big time steakhouses has his own place….. it’s delicious and inexpensive. I Will Teach You To Eat Steak

    Ramit,

    You and my mom should get together for Korean food in Seattle. She’ll have a huge load of Scrooge material on you.

    April 21, 2009

    I signed up also, but got no response except back to the blog.

    Quartino’s would be great in Chicago. Inexpensive, good italian food. Hopefully it won’t be chilly here when you visit. And Ramit, where’s my book? :)

  37. 37
    April 21, 2009

    You need to add Austin, TX to the tour sometime. ;-)

  38. 38
    April 21, 2009

    Hope you hit up Boston sometime, Ramit!

  39. 39

    April 21, 2009

    Wow, you are coming to Charlotte! Awesome. I have been telling everyone about your book. I would definitely be down for a meet-up. We can have something at my friends new spot called Crave. It’s an awesome desert bar. Let me know and I’ll try and organize something.

    Ramit -

    I wish I could meet up with you in PDX. I just picked up your book not too long ago and I’m learning so much about investing! Voodoo Doughnuts is certainly a good place to visit, though there will be plenty to soak up (the sights, the sounds and the weather). It’s a great time to visit PDX because the weather has been fair lately.

    April 22, 2009

    Just got your email announcing the book tour, only to see Los Angeles scratched out as of last night…wish I’d known sooner than after the fact. Coming to L.A. again?

    I second Adam. Vegas dude. Come on…

    Put me down for meeting in Ann Arbor. Hope I’m not the only one.

    April 22, 2009

    Ramit, how about some love for your Southern readers? Atlanta is much more accessible, to many more people, than Charlotte. Come see us in Atlanta!

    April 22, 2009

    No Columbus O.H.I.O.? All these BUCKEYES need to know how to get rich after winning all these games?!?! And the Bluejackets are on the map now!!! Lots of folks want to become wealthy here!!! PLEASE… PLEASE make us one of your stops!!!

    If you cruise through Madison between Milwaukee and Minnesota, the gang at the Filene Research Institute would love to see you.

    Hey Ramit,

    Lots of us young entrepreneurs and value investors here in Seattle. Let me know when you’re in the city: I know all the cool places to eat/hide from the rain.

  53. 53

  61. 61
    April 22, 2009

    Rammit,
    You should consider a stop somewhere in Missouri. Off the top of my head, Kansas City, Columbia, or even Branson could prove very valuable.

  62. 62
    April 22, 2009

    Where in Seattle will you be? I can’t find the location anywhere.

  63. 63
    April 22, 2009

    Where are Boston and NYC? Swing by Boston, please!

    You’re in the Bay Area usually, right? What about a meetup here, for the SF/East Bay/Peninsula folks?

  65. 65
    April 22, 2009

    Look forward to seeing you. I’m already locally famous. I just need to become rich. Look for a guy in a white tux. All I need to know is where in Portland

    Ramit-
    I am around Ann Arbor when you will be there – but seem to find any info on where you might be! I will need more than a day of notice to coordinate getting to Ann Arbor. Although I am on your list, I still haven’t heard anything. When will you post where/when you’ll be in these cities? I really don’t want to miss it!

  90. 90
    May 4, 2009

    Any chance Austin can get on this list?
