Get $25 Free From Lending Club Plus a Chance to Win $2500

RC — Thu, 10 Sep 2009 03:07:09 +0000

In the next few weeks one lucky winner will become Lending Club’s 25,000th registered investor. To celebrate this milestone, the 25,000th registered investor will receive $2,500 cash.

In order to receive $25 free to invest at Lending Club, type in this “Referred by” code when registering: rcthinkwealth. You will get $25 free to try out Lending Club, as well as have a chance to win $2500 if you are the 25,000th investor.

The winner will be announced on the Lending Club blog after October 1^st. For contest details visit the Lending Club Terms & Conditions page.

What is Lending Club ?

Lending Club is a Peer to Peer Lending site, also known as person to person lending or social lending. People can either lend or borrow money, without using a financial institution, such as a bank. The advantages are that a borrower can usually get a better rate than they would from a conventional loan through a financial institution, but at the same time, a lender can get much better returns that they would through normal investment channels such as a savings account. For example, Lending Club investors currently receive an average annualized return of 9.64%. The rate of return depends on the risk level (credit score of borrower, etc), as one would expect. However, borrowers must still qualify for the loans, and must have a minimum FICO score of 660, along with meeting other criteria. For more information, see Lending Club’s FAQ page.

As with any investment, there are risks, but receiving $25 free to try out investing with Lending Club seems like a no-brainer to me. In fact, I signed up for Lending Club a few weeks ago with a $25 bonus, and funded a loan with it. Unfortunately, I missed out on the chance to become the 25,000th investor, but you still have chance to win. I am going to discuss my experiences with Lending Club more in the near future.

For your $25 free to try out lending Club, use referral code: rcthinkwealth

Free 60 Day Pass to BJ’s Wholesale Shopping Club

RC — Sun, 17 May 2009 15:48:29 +0000

UPDATE 11/15/2010- BJ’s is again offering a free 60 day pass- it must be activated by 12/31/2010 (see bottom of post for link)

Note: If you are reading this after this offer expires- Follow this link if you want to try out BJ’s with a free one day pass.

If you live near a BJ’s Wholesale club and are not a member and want to try it out, BJ’s is currently giving away a free 60 day pass (see link below) to those who want to try it out.

A PR rep for BJ’s was kind enough to send me the link, and invited me to share it with my readers, so try it out if you have a BJ’s near you.

I am a big fan of warehouse/wholesale shopping clubs, not just for buying food and household items in bulk, but also the great prices on things like electronics, tires for your automobile, and household furnishings.

Unfortunately for me, my warehouse club shopping is limited to Sam’s Club- although I like Sam’s a lot and don’t really have any complaints, I would not mind trying out others such as BJ’s or Costco. The nearest BJ’s is probably a day’s drive away.

Info from the BJ’s website:

• Save more than 30%** off supermarket prices on favorite brands
• Multiply your savings with manufacturers’ coupons — BJ’s accepts them all
• Find more of the family-friendly sizes you use every day
• More payment options — BJ’s offers convenient ways to pay: cash, checks, major credit cards, EBT and debit cards

** Link Updated 11/15/2010- must be activated by 12/31/2010 **

Free 60 Day Pass to BJ’s Wholesale Club
