Jeremy Schneider is the San Diego-based founder of Personal Finance Club, which sells online courses on index fund investing and money basics, and co-founder of the advice-only adviser network Nectarine.
Jeremy Schneider is an American software entrepreneur and personal finance educator who runs Personal Finance Club, a brand that began as an Instagram account in 2019. According to the Personal Finance Club press kit, he holds a master's degree in computer science from the University of Michigan and lives in San Diego. Before Personal Finance Club he founded RentLinx, an advertising network for rental properties, which he sold to AppFolio for $5 million; the press kit says his after-tax share was about $2 million. CNBC Select (Brett Holzhauer, updated November 1, 2024) reported the sale took place in 2015, when he was 34, and that he had turned down a job offer from Microsoft to start his own company.
In January 2023 he co-founded Nectarine with Vivi Ton, according to the press kit and Nectarine's own FAQ. Nectarine lists fiduciary financial advisers who charge a flat or hourly fee. In the SEC's Investment Adviser Public Disclosure database, Nectarine (also recorded as Nectarine, Inc. and Nectarine Financial, Inc.) appears as an SEC-registered investment adviser based in San Diego, with registration approved on August 21, 2023 (checked September 16, 2026). Personal Finance Club itself presents its courses as education, and its press kit says Schneider is not a financial adviser.
Personal Finance Club publishes on Instagram and TikTok (@personalfinanceclub), Facebook and YouTube. On September 16, 2026 the YouTube channel showed 19.4K subscribers. CNBC reported more than 400,000 Instagram followers in its November 2024 article; The Tilt (June 16, 2022) reported 392K on Instagram and 112.8K on TikTok at that time. Current Instagram and TikTok counts could not be read reliably.
The paid products are sold through a Thinkific school at courses.personalfinanceclub.com. On September 16, 2026 the courses page listed Build Wealth by Investing in Index Funds and How to Money Like a Millionaire at $99 each, both shown on sale for $69; The Ultimate Personal Finance Bundle with both courses at $149, on sale for $119; and Dead Box, a digital file template for organizing financial information for relatives, at $49, on sale for $29. The site also offers a free investing mini course, a FIRE crash course and several calculators. According to the press kit, the index fund course brought in $100,000 in sales in its first week in 2020; The Tilt put the figure at $110K for a course then priced at $79. CNBC reported nearly $1 million in revenue since October 2020, two full-time employees and a policy of donating 20% of revenue to charity. These figures come from Schneider himself and have no independent confirmation.
On reputation, the coverage located is interviews and profiles: CNBC Select, The Tilt, an NYSE TV Live appearance and podcasts such as ChooseFI. No FINRA BrokerCheck or SEC IAPD record matched him personally: the Jeremy Schneider records in BrokerCheck belong to brokers at Goldman Sachs and UBS in New York and Wells Fargo in Jupiter, Florida, plus an inactive registration (searched September 16, 2026). A web search on the same date found no FTC or state attorney general action under his name or Personal Finance Club's. His exact age and the legal entity that sells the courses are not stated in the sources reviewed.

The same fields, side by side. No verdict: you decide.
He is a University of Michigan computer science graduate who sold his rental listings company RentLinx to AppFolio for $5 million, retired early, and in 2019 started Personal Finance Club on Instagram. He lives in San Diego and co-founded the adviser network Nectarine in 2023.
On September 16, 2026 the official courses page listed Build Wealth by Investing in Index Funds and How to Money Like a Millionaire at $99 each (on sale for $69), both together as The Ultimate Personal Finance Bundle at $149 (on sale for $119), and the Dead Box template at $49 (on sale for $29).
His press kit says he is not. BrokerCheck showed no record matching him on September 16, 2026. Nectarine, the company he co-founded, is registered with the SEC as an investment adviser and lists independent fiduciary advisers who charge by the hour or by project.
What can be checked: the courses are sold openly with posted prices on Thinkific, his business history was reported by CNBC Select in 2024, and a September 16, 2026 search found no FTC or state attorney general action under his name. Revenue and sales figures come from him and are not independently confirmed.
He has not published audited figures. His website says he has a net worth of over $4 million, and CNBC Select reported $4.4 million in November 2024, based on what he shared. Neither figure has independent verification.
