- Betterment (Investing)
- Automated investing platform, also called a “robo-advisor”. Has been rolling out some additional tools over time – tax loss harvesting and more recently tax-coordinated portfolios. Pretty nice tools tools.
- Open a new account, you get a month free and so do I. The fees are very low, so not a huge benefit but nice perk to get started without any cost.
- Airbnb (Travel)
- I use Airbnb when I travel for unique and typically lower-cost accommodations than traditional hotels. I’m also a host for travelers to San Diego using the site. I’ve really enjoyed both sides of using Airbnb and recommend it to many friends.
- Become an Airbnb host, earn $75
- Travel (for first-time) using Airbnb, earn $25
- BeyondPricing (Airbnb Pricing Tool)
- Tool to automatically adjust pricing for Airbnb listings factoring in seasonality, day of week, local market dynamics, and more. Helps to fill potentially empty room nights and capture high prices for high demand periods. [Note: Airbnb has been improving internal pricing tools but I currently find BeyondPricing better.)

- A fantastic online bank – good interest rates, easy to open and close accounts, great customer service. I’ve used for 10+ years as my primary bank.
- Open a new checking or savings account, you get $50, I get $20.
- SolarCity (Solar Panels)
- Solar installation and financing company. I had a system installed by them at our last house and loved it, planning to do another installation at our current place soon.
- Install a system and I get $250. I don’t think there’s a bonus for the new installation (you), but I’ll give you half. 🙂
