Resources

I have a number of accounts with various financial institutions and companies.  I believe that you should always get something for making a purchase or signing up for a service, so this page provides the opportunity for you to request that I refer you to the service.  I will most likely get something for referring you and you will also get a something for getting referred so we will both be happy. Below is a list of resources that I can refer you to:

ING Direct – ING Direct is an online high yield savings bank that consistently provides relatively higher savings  rate of  returns than brick and mortar banks.  At this time, they do not have the highest savings rate of online savings banks, but I still like to use them because they are reliable.

If you choose to open an Orange Savings Account or an Electric Orange Account (checking) with $250 or more, I can refer you and you will get $25 added into your account while I’ll get $10.  Email me at inthemoneyy at gmail dot com and I can send you instructions on the referral.

Scottrade – Scottrade is a discount retail brokerage firm that you can use to execute trades in the stock market as well to open retirement accounts.  I really like Scottrade for their investment tools and reliability.  They also have local branch office and cheap trades at $7 a trade.

If you choose to open a Scottrade Account, I can refer you and we will each get 3 free trades.  Email me at inthemoneyy at gmail dot com and I will send you instructions for the referral.

Lending Club – Lending Club is a peer to peer lending company that allows you to borrow money from other individuals or to lend money and college interest on that investment.  I like this idea a lot and I think it is a great idea.  If you need money that the bank will not lend to you, you can sign up on Lending Club and borrow money from others for a certain interest rate.  On the flip side, if you want to invest some money and lend it to other for a pretty good return, this is a good option.

If you choose to open an account with Lending Club, I can refer you and you get $25.  I don’t think I get anything for investors, but if you want to borrow money, I get $100 if I refer you. Email me at inthemoneyy at gmail dot com and I can send you instructions on the referral.

ElanceElance is a website for freelancers to sell their services and for people who need expertise in a certain area to find help.  I have used Elance a couple times to hire web and software programmers for certain projects and found that it is a really useful website.  You can also sign up on the site as a service provider to earn more money on the side and generate more income.
