What’s a Satellite? Am I in one?
Great question – You belong to the Online Chapter (OLC). The Online Chapter members were drawn from chapters that were closed and other members that geographically did not already belong to a Chapter nearby. Some areas of the United States have a concentration of members – many from closed chapters. If there are volunteers in an area that are trained, ready, and willing and able to serve, the OLC has formed a geographic group called “Satellites”.

Where are the Satellites?
Arkansas  
Long Island
New York City
Rochester
South Central Texas (supporting members in the Great San Antonio Area)
Southwest Idaho
Yankee (Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island)

What is the " Objective?
Provide the opportunity for each BetterInvesting member in the local area to develop the investing skills needed to achieve financial security and independence.

What’s happening in the Satellites?
The Online Chapter’s Satellites are ready to assist local clubs and members. What can they do for your club or you?

Club Visits
Would you like a Club visit – in person or virtual? We can answer general questions about BetterInvesting and more. Maybe you need help navigating the rich content on the website. Perhaps you’d like a portfolio tuneup or tips on how to find stocks to study. And a favorite club visit is to present an anniversary certificate - Always a time for celebrating. If your club has a milestone anniversary (5, 10, 15, 20 25 or more years) a BetterInvesting benefit is a presentation (in person or virtual) of your club’s anniversary certificate. Your club may also choose to include a short presentation of other topics of interest. Contact the Online Chapter today to inquire about a club visit.

Forming a New Club
Are you newly forming a club? Get answers to partnership agreements, opening brokerage accounts and bank account, setting up software and assistance navigating the BetterInvesting website and tools.

Local Events
Our Satellites will begin holding local events when it is safe to meet. Check in with your local Satellite Leader to be on the mailing list for future events.

Form a New Satellite
The Online Chapter is always looking for passionate volunteers to form a Satellite and assist other members in their area with their knowledge and passion. Contact us to see how you can help.
