It’s called “Party at the End of the World” and it’s coming at you sometime in 2013 via St. Martin’s Press. His agents describe the book as “a sex- drugs- and alcohol-fueled account of how Lohse nearly lost his life in the country’s cradle of frat debauchery and found something like redemption in…making it his mission to reform what is a national problem,” though hopefully there will be at least a few pages devoted to the “faceless hedge funds” and other Wall Street institutions that helped make Lohse famous by making him sick.

You know what they say: You can’t choose your family, but you can choose your financial planner. Or something like that. One of the great things of being in charge of your money is choosing who (if anyone) will help you manage it. The choice isn’t always an easy one. How will you know that your planner is reputable and trustworthy?
These five red flags may be good indications of whether the financial planner sitting across from you is someone you should trust with your money. LearnVest Planning also provides an innovative 7-step program for your money where you work one-on-one with a financial planner. To see if this program is right for you, start with a free financial consultation.
1. She Isn’t Certified
“There are a lot of good planners out there who aren’t Certified Financial Panners™,” says Samantha Vient, CFP®, of LearnVest Planning Services. “However, CFPs® are required to adhere to the CFP® Board’s standards of professional conduct.We believe it’s always a good idea to work with someone who has the CFP® designation, which is issued after completing a CFP® Board-approved personal financial planning curriculum, passing a rigorous exam issued by the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, meeting experience requirements and passing an ethics and background check.
2. He Offers to Manage Your Money for “Free”
Financial planners are usually paid in one of two ways: Either through fee-only, which can be a set fee, hourly, retainer or a percentage of the assets they manage for you, or through commission, which means the planner is paid each time he buys or sells an investment.Fee-only payment structures can be more desirable to some clients, as there’s no financial incentive based on assets under management for a planner to buy or sell, whereas working on commission encourages planners to make trades, rather than solely look out for your best interest—called a “fiduciary” duty. (You want to be sure that the planner you choose is a fiduciary.)
LearnVest Planning Services provides the services of fee-only Certified Financial Planners™. Get started for free with a 15-minute financial consultation.
3. She Says She Outperforms the Market
“If a financial planner tells you that she can outperform the market, that’s a major red flag,” Vient explains. “In fact, due to government regulations, it’s illegal to advertise statements that promise a specific return.”Outperforming the market—that is, getting better investment returns than the market average—is extremely difficult to do consistently, and requires taking a lot of risks with your investments. It’s rare to find a financial planner who can consistently outperform the market—and results are never guaranteed. Either way, in the pursuit of these high returns, she’ll be exposing your investments to much higher risk than you may be comfortable with.
Instead, look for a CFP® who, when looking at your portfolio, can advise on proper asset allocation based on your risk tolerance and time horizon, as well as through economic ups and downs.
4. She Doesn’t Ask About Your Financial Goals
“Your planner isn’t just there to crunch the numbers,” Vient advises. “She’s helping you make a plan for your money and your life. You should be looking for someone who has similar values to you.”Ideally, you’ll likely want to work with someone who is in a similar life stage. Are you a parent? A planner with children may be better able to understand your need to save for college. Does your CFP® have a specialty? Some planners have an area of expertise, like insurance, estate planning, divorce or retirement—a fact you might want to consider if that’s a particular need of yours.
When meeting a potential planner, remember that you’re allowed to ask questions about their experience and priorities: “Do you think it’s more important to save for retirement or pay off debt? How do you feel about supporting kids through college? How do you mitigate investment risk as your clients get older?”
The choices you make with your money are intensely personal. The person who helps you make these choices should be able to understand and accept your financial priorities, and help you use your money to meet them.
5. His Management Style Makes You Uncomfortable
Financial planners can manage your money for you or manage your money with you. As different people have different needs when it comes to money management, there is no right way to work with a planner—it’s up to you to decide how hands-on you want him to be.
When you sign on with a financial planner, there will be a written agreement of how the two of you will manage your money. Read this carefully, and ask questions if you’re unsure about anything. Are you signing your accounts over to this planner? Will he check in with you before making a trade, or when rebalancing your accounts? If you’re uncomfortable with anything in the agreement, bring it up immediately.Learn more about LearnVest Planning and our financial planners by visiting learnvest.com.

SoFi Answers the Call to Refinance Student Loans and Provides Unique Community Benefits
This is a guest post written by SoFi’s CEO, Mike Cagney.
CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL ARTICLE
Recently, there’s been a lot of talk amongst leaders in Washington about how to improve the painful process of repaying student loans. At SoFi, we feel your pain and work hard to offer more flexible, more affordable options for our borrowers. One idea that’s getting a lot of attention is increasing the options for refinancing debt after graduation. The only lender currently focused on refinancing private and federal student loans is SoFi.
We recognized early on that borrowers who have made timely payments on their loans, graduated from school, and have a job should be able to refinance their student loans at a lower interest rate. This may be why, after resuming lending by invitation, the media became increasingly interested in what we are doing.
In a recent article posted on MainStreet.com SoFi General Counsel Rob Lavet had this to say about SoFi’s ReFi products:
“We can offer a better deal than the federal government in terms of rates […].We offer borrowers who meet our underwriting criteria a package that pays off their federal and existing private student loans at a rate as low as 5.49%. Some lenders will do a consolidation on private loans, but we’re the first lender to offer to refinance a federal loan at a lower rate.”
Journalists from the USA TODAY, The Chronicle for Higher Education, the American Banker among others, also found themselves reporting on how SoFi is “using social communities and offering refinancing of student loans.“ It is this social community aspect that makes refinancing with SoFi so valuable. By connecting borrowers with a community literally invested in their success, the benefits of a SoFi loan go beyond saving money.
How many student lenders do you know that will help unemployed borrowers find a new job? SoFi does just that – engaging with borrowers who are actively looking for new employment opportunities and leveraging the networks of all members eager to help these individuals achieve new heights in their career.
Our Entrepreneur Program is another example of SoFi’s community in action connecting like-minded borrowers and investors in support of new business creation. We combine mentoring sessions for participants with exclusive access to the venture capital community.
SoFi wants to help borrowers realize their goals beyond paying off student debt. Whether seeking employment opportunities, career advice, partners for entrepreneurial ventures, access to industry luminaries, or simply a like-minded network, our members benefit from a supportive community of people vested in one another’s success.

So…judging by how "sick" a $100 payment to write an essay made you, I presume you won't be needing an advance to write this book. Yeah…thought so, fucking hypocrite.
- VP, St. Martin's Press
what a douche
Unleveraged sellout
i prefer tucker max thank you very much
The Bros always wins!!!!
Meanwhile: the bottom falls out on the value of Dartmouth diplomas. Thanks, Andy!
Fraternity Brother Cum Whistleblower – TFM
Restaurant at the End of the Universe > Party at the End of the World.
A Brother-Cum-Whistleblower!….Wow, I can't even whistle after I eat saltines much less a mouthful of liquid salty goodness. I need to meet this guy.
I want to eat your brains!
Why is there always a one guy who feels like they have some sort of deep existential perspective on being force to eat a raw onion, funnel beers, and do an elephant walk…
“Party at the End of the World” is the title? Really? Because having a bad fratbro experience is the end of the world? This guy is a clown.
Should call it "Party at the end of his throat"
Kid says seeing people offered money from Bridgewater to take surveys makes him sick because it could go to charitable causes, but was more than willing to let hundreds of dollars disappear up his nose and then when he was caught doing it, tries to get redemption by selling out his house, realizing having a cocaine arrest makes it far harder to get a real job.
This joke just gets better every time!
Stealing your book title from a party referenced in a Bret Easton Ellis book is the NKI?
I hear he blows dudes
Come back to bed
Know how I know you're a dude?
Had to thumbs up that for being the one in a hundred good LT comment.
LaxBro – please comment
he didn't graduate.
As a Dartmouth alum, I can sincerely say any Dartmouth student found with a copy of this book will be burned at the stake. Once a bro, always a bro.
-PMD Goldman Sachs
Sex drugs and alcohol at Dartmouth? I have been there and the girls were B- at best, I couldn't find even a bit of cocaine and I swear to god, if I had to drink one more natty ice I was going to haze some pledges.
-Guy who was in a real fraternity where greek life is real somewhere in the south.
What's this guy's deal anyway? Joining a frat and being shocked at the debauchery would have been like me joining my school's wrestling team and being outraged by the homoeroticism and light anal play.
wtf are you talking about, your southern girl frat whores are not any better… they are overwhelmingly either rail thin coke sluts or shamu's extended family. Believe me when I say that I found where the wild things are.
Pshh…maybe with cheat codes.
- Princess Peach
Yeah, I know lots of guys who couldn't hack the practices either.
Paging Capt. Renault….
should we believe you when you say that?
I will commission him to write the intimate account of my shower stories at Penn State. Being a fellow Cum dump..err brother he is perfect candidate for my epic tome….
J.Sandusky is the NKI
Anyone who knows anything about Dartmouth knows that we only drink Keystone Light
"National Problem" = college kids wanting to get drunk, have sex with random women, and occasionally abuse drugs? The fuck?
- guy who is nostalgic of the days when he drank cheap beer, slept with random women, and occasionally abused drugs
"guy who is nostalgic of the days when he drank cheap beer, slept with random women, and occasionally abused drugs"
We encourage you to continue those activities after college.
-Murray Hill
If you're looking for me, you'll find me 2000 miles to the Southwest.
-Cradle of Frat Debauchery
Had to thumbs down that for stating the obvious.
Seconded.
-Hoboken
Agreed. Schools south of the mason-dixon are generally more fun.
DUche… Was your school over 80% greek by any chance? You sound familiar.
- Broboken
Fixed it for you.
Pretty sure this dickhead never would have gotten an invite to Fog Cutters……
-Guy who went to too many
"The original article stated that Bridgewater Associates paid Lohse's friend $100 to write a statement about her involvement in corporate recruiting. In fact, Bridgewater did not solicit any written information from participants in the conversation-based focus group that is referenced, according to Greg Jensen ’96, co-chief executive officer of Bridgewater."
So what's this guy's problem again? I feel like the $100 dollars was probably for a lot more than just a simple explanation as to why she didn't want to work for them….
Stealing your book title from a song referenced in a Miley Cyrus tune is the NKI?
Been there, done that.
#HMD
He would not.
- Guy who sent out the invites.
Hey, that's my favorite position!
He bought his friends in college, hopefully they buy his book.
Agreed.
-brother who still gags at the smell
"wtf are you talking about, your southern girl frat whores are not any better… they are overwhelmingly either rail thin coke sluts or shamu's extended family. Believe me when I say that I found where the wild things are."
Ok, look, I actually don't think Dartmouth women are that bad (especially by Ivy League standards), but please don't try to compare them to Southern frat girls.
Southern frat girls > girls from any school in the Northeast and anyone who says otherwise doesn't have a clue what he's talking about.
Having all the hillarious potential that Jerry Sandusky and gay frat jokes offer, and blowing it with the above comment is the NKI.
He's a douche, but if half of what he said is true about Dartmouth, then that place should be wiped off the face of the earth. Allegedly.

Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
