It's your favorite FIRE blogger, Into the FIRE (just kidding ;P - there's plenty of FIRE bloggers out there much cooler than I am ).
Anyway, I wanted to share with you this opportunity I found today to win $25,000 from Wealthfront.
Here are the official rules.
Note, I get no affiliate benefit from sharing this with you! :). Just sharing out of the goodness of my heart.
A few key excerpts: You do not need to invest to win. If you do not wish to invest, you must mail in to enter.
See here:
(b) Entry Without a Wealthfront Cash Account: If you do not have an active Wealthfront Cash Account, you may enter each Applicable Sweepstakes for free by mailing a 3×5 card containing (i) the “Code” listed in Table A that corresponds with the Applicable Sweepstakes to which you are entering; (ii) your first and last name; (iii) phone number; and (iv) email address to: Wealthfront Sweepstakes c/o Sync Marketing LLC, 3905 State Street #7 Box 506, Santa Barbara, CA 93105-5107. Upon Administrator’s receipt of your 3×5 card, you will receive one (1) entry in the Applicable Sweepstakes. You must send one (1) 3×5 card for each Applicable Sweepstakes you wish to enter. Limit: one (1) 3×5 card per entrant per Applicable Sweepstakes.
3×5 Card Entry Details: The Administrator will discard any 3×5 cards that (i) do not contain all required information described above or (ii) contain more information than is required by these Official Rules. Discarded 3×5 cards will not receive an entry. 3×5 cards for each Applicable Sweepstakes must be postmarked on or after the Applicable Sweepstakes’ start date and before or on the Applicable Sweepstakes’ end date. All 3×5 cards for an Applicable Sweepstakes must be received by the Administrator on or before the third business day that follows the Applicable Sweepstakes Sweepstake End date as listed in Table A below in order to be eligible.
Now, if you do invest to win:(a) Wealthfront Cash Account Entry: If you have an active Wealthfront account (i.e., account is open and funded) in good standing as of the end of the Applicable Sweepstakes Period, you will automatically receive one (1) entry in the Applicable Sweepstakes, subject to the entry limits below. Limit: one (1) entry per person/account holder per Applicable Sweepstakes. If you do not wish to participate in all Sweepstakes, you can opt out by sending an email to support@wealthfront.com.
The minimum investment is $500. Personally, I don't like investments such as these. Wealthfront takes a small fee for robo-investing, but it's still a fee for something that I could do on my own.
So if you do enter, I'd suggest mailing in. $25000 for a $500 return sounds great, but remember you are competing with everyone who has an active Wealthfront account.
So, your odds aren't that great, but it's better than playing the lottery (probably).
If you do mail in, I've copied the table from the official rules below:
| TABLE A | |||
| Applicable Sweepstakes Periods and Approximate Winner Selection Dates | |||
| Applicable Sweepstakes | Sweepstakes Starts | Sweepstakes Ends | Winner Selection (on or about date) |
| Sweepstakes 1 Code: WFSWEEP1 | March 20, 2020 | March 26, 2020, 5:00 p.m. | April 3, 2020 |
| Sweepstakes 2 Code: WFSWEEP2 | March 27, 2020 | April 2, 2020, 5:00 p.m. | April 10, 2020 |
| Sweepstakes 3 Code: WFSWEEP3 | April 3, 2020 | April 9, 2020, 5:00 p.m. | April 17, 2020 |
| Sweepstakes 4 Code: WFSWEEP4 | April 10, 2020 | April 16, 2020, 5:00 p.m. | April 20, 2020 |
Best of luck to you! And please stay safe and wash your hands in these trying, crazy, coronavirus times!
Yours truly,
Into the FIRE
