DARK SIDE OF MONEY Featuring Francis Bustamante
About this Event
This month, we’re digging into a part of the financial world that affects almost everyone, but few people understand: Investments, working with wealth managers and the fees you pay.
On Wednesday, Sept 9th, Francis Bustamante joins us, with decades of experience inside the industry, to expose what happens behind the scenes.
He'll discuss the traps of wealth management, avoiding management fees and the landscape of investing.
Why This Talk Matters
Francis will break down how these problems happen, why they persist, and what to spot before they become a problem.
What to Expect
• Francis sharing hardlearned lessons from the complex world of investing.
• A live Q&A where you can ask what you actually want to ask
• Time before and after the conversation to mingle with the kind of people who show up to a Dark Side of Money night
• Free admission, casual dress, food and drinks at the venue bar
• No pitches. No products. No slimey sales.

Who This Is For
Anyone who has felt the financial world is stacked against them and wants to understand why. Tradespeople, small business owners, professionals, contractors, salaried employees, parents, retirees. High earners who haven’t built wealth yet. People living paycheck to paycheck. People who have lived both and still feel underprepared.
The struggle looks different at different income levels. The underlying questions are the same.
Why the Dark Side of Money exists
The hosts of The Dark Side of Money have all been through the dark corners themselves. The work injuries and the inadequate disability coverage. The business that succeeded and the one that didn’t. The estate that locked up the family’s money for a year and a half. The divorce. The partnership breakups. The paycheck to paycheck stretches and the high earning stretches that still didn’t add up to real wealth.
They saw the same patterns repeating in the people around them, and noticed that the events meant to help mostly weren’t helping. So they built the room they wished had existed. Honest. Practical. Free. No pitch attached.
The conversation nobody else is having. Now you don’t have to have it alone.
