INVESTING WITH ELLEVEST

I'd like to get investor feedback from active users of Ellevest. I've seen Sallie Krawcheck (founder) speak (in a small group setting at The Wing), she's powerful and persuasive. But I've yet to join .

I signed up with Fundrise (real estate investment) just under a year ago and have already seen a good return. It's super easy to use and cool to see updates on the projects you're invested in.

If you're comfortable with a robo-adviser platform, then go for it. I've just always preferred working with a professional financial adviser (so much so that I became one myself!)

Hrmm, I use Wealthfront. I'd have to see the historic returns and compare the two to see if it's worth it.

Giving the benefit of the doubt, it all depends upon the chapter where you are located. In my city the membership includes a large proportion of life coaches, realtors, financial advisors, and the like, all looking for clients. As I am seeking corporate counterparts it doesn't fit my needs. Also, the membership churn appears high. For my Squad, a peer coaching group, only half of those who indicated interest actually showed up to participate (4 of 8) and none had been in Ellevate more than a few months - including the person assigned to lead the Squad (who happens to be a coach focused on improving sales success).

Hey, I found it really easy to start. I like that it's goal focused (you set a financial goal like a house deposit or car, then it will take you through how long it'll take to get there based on your monthly investments), I like the brand overall. It got a 4.5/5 on Nerd Wallet. If you do decide to go for it, you can use my invite code! ;) We'll both get $20 https://www.ellevest.com/invite/qcis7z

I invest with Ellevest I’ve been happy about the level of control I can take or not take and the different categories I can create savings and investment goals for it’s a very easy user-face and I’ve seen great results!

I'm actually hosting a thought leadership event with Ellevest's Chief Product Officer this Thursday in NYC. If you're in the city and available, it might be a great opportunity to learn more about them! Event information and RSVP details here: https://brainstation.io/event/nycsept2019

You're invited.
