Wealthfront strategy

If I were to invest 50k in wealthfront: A) is it better to split it two accounts (25k each between my wife and I) to get the free 15k management on each account? Or B) put it all in one account and try to reach 100k faster to get to other benefits such as direct index investing etc.

Join google and get 75k for free dude. Better option :-)

Wow, that’s a nice perk👍

Or join Thumbtack and get 100k managed for free

100k...sweet

I Wonder if there’s a wealthfront offer for Apple employees

(B) is the correct answer. 15k free is just worth $37 a year. That's peanuts. Direct indexing will pay back way more than 37 bucks.

How do you get 75k free with google? Is that for google employees

C) Find suckers who you can send referral to, convince them to invest with wealthfront, get more free managed money

hahaha I used to get free dbx storage that way

I’m one of those suckers who got an invite😉

Btw, I think Betterment referral program is so much better than Wealthfront. 3 referrals gives you a full year free. I have 600k there so that saved me $1,500. 1 referral in Wealthfront gives you 12 bucks / year.

Wow, 600k in wealthfront! You are killing it!

Tableau Johnny27 Jan 17, 2018

In Betterment. I'm not killing it, I'm just old :)

Google nogifts Jan 17, 2018

Old = 35??? Damn that is some serious money Tableau. Good work though

Can anyone refer me to greater than 15k free referral?

Amazon Pizza123 Mar 11, 2018

@zuxz135 did you find anyone giving greater than 15k?
