The issues were myriad: renting an apartment, opening a retirement account, properly filling out her W-4 form at work, etc. The traditional sources such as books and the library were of no avail and her friends were just as thirsty for good advice as she was. With this in mind, she left Harvard Business School to start LearnVest, a website designed to help any woman savvy enough to use the internet master her personal finances. LearnVest provides trusted, interactive, and educational articles in a clear and approachable manner for free. Don’t miss this chance to meet Alexa von Tobel, a young and successful woman entrepreneur! Following a short speech from Alexa the room will open up to social networking. Hors d’oeuvres, dessert, and “mocktails” will be provided!
