Jeremy Schneider: How to Master Your Money by Investing in the Market

Jeremy Schneider is an entrepreneur, software developer, and personal finance educator passionate about making investing simple and accessible. In 2004, he founded RentLinx, bootstrapped it without outside funding, and profitably grew the company until its acquisition by AppFolio in 2015. That success allowed Jeremy to reach financial independence and retire at the age of 36.

After exiting, he founded Personal Finance Club, where he teaches millions how to build wealth through disciplined saving and long-term investing, and co-founded Nectarine, a marketplace dedicated to fixing the financial advice industry by aligning incentives.

Jeremy's mission is to help others achieve financial freedom by providing clear, unbiased education. When he's not teaching personal finance, he enjoys beach volleyball, traveling, and spending time outdoors.
