keynote speaker
Jaspreet Singh
Founder of Minority Mindset
Jaspreet Singh is a serial entrepreneur, licensed attorney, and the founder of Minority Mindset, a financial media company & YouTube Channel with over 900,000 subscribers.
Jaspreet Singh is an attorney, investor, and entrepreneur. Although he didn’t receive any formal financial education – he’s on a mission to make financial education fun and accessible.
Jaspreet is the CEO of Minority Mindset – a financial media company. The Minority Mindset YouTube channel has changed the lives of nearly 1,000,000 YouTube subscribers with their videos being viewed 5 million times a month.
Jaspreet is self-taught. His parents are immigrants from the state of Punjab, India. Like many of his second generation Indians, Jaspreet grew up thinking that he needed to become a doctor. But he found a new path. He started his first business – an event planning company – when he was in college.
However, Jaspreet didn’t see a future with that company. After graduating college, Jaspreet pursued law school where he continued his entrepreneurial and financial ventures.
He started by investing in real estate. But he quickly realized that if we wanted to continue investing in real estate, he’d need access to more capital. So, Jaspreet jumped back into entrepreneurship.
After a couple years of research, Jaspreet invented a water-resistant athletic sock.
During the launch of his sock company, he was scammed by a marketing company which cost him thousands of dollars. This scam pushed him to start an educational social media page, which he called Minority Mindset. The Minority Mindset implies thinking differently than the majority of people. It’s not a racial minority.
He started Minority Mindset as a hobby just to teach others how to not make the same mistakes he made.
This social media page eventually grew into a YouTube Channel. Around the time when his YouTube Channel hit 100,000 subscribers – his sock patent was denied. At this point, he was forced to make a decision…
Continue with the sock company, or pursue Minority Mindset?
The sock company was profitable while Minority Mindset was not. He decided to follow his passion and pursued Minority Mindset full time after graduating law school.
Now Minority Mindset has grown into a full media company. His company is completely bootstrapped. As he likes to say, YouTube funds his business. He uses his viral YouTube channel’s revenue to fund and grow Minority Mindset.
His brand has helped countless people get out of debt, start investing, and create a plan towards building wealth.

ABOUT
FinCon
Central
FinCon Central is the hub of the FinCon experience, and this year it will take place both live and virtually. It includes exhibits, live podcasting, video booths, and more! Our partnering brands will be there to network and meet with you, so plan to take advantage of this time to grow your network and do business.
We intentionally design FinCon so that you get as much real value from the experience as you can, and FinCon Central is a key part of that value. It’s a high-energy place to discover platform solutions, collaborate with other creators, and meet in person or virtually with potential sponsors.
Don’t just take our word for it
"I’ve made some of the best connections and had some of the best opportunities for my work by attending FinCon..."

TEll me more about
pro Networking
And Why I should Upgrade
Pro Networking is an exclusive networking opportunity where Pro Pass holders and brands schedule mutually-beneficial meetings. The goal is to connect Pro level attendees to the companies and brands they want to do business with. Whether you’re a content creator or a brand who is attending in person in Austin or at home, you can still participate in these meetings.
Pro Networking events are only included with the #FinCon21 Pro Pass.
Can't decide which pass is for you?
In this video, the FinCon Team explains all three pass options and who we think is the best fit for each.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
We are following the lead of the City of Austin, Austin Public Health, and the Austin Convention Center for all Covid-related safety precautions. They currently have enhanced cleaning protocols, social distancing measures, mask requirements, as well as related safety requirements for all vendors and A/V and general services contractors. Additionally, the FinCon Team is planning the schedule and space with these measures in mind. Since vaccines are currently rolling out nationwide and a lot can change between now and September, we will continue to update attendees as additional information unfolds.
We do not offer refunds for #FinCon21 passes. If you are unsure you can attend in person in Austin in September, you can purchase a virtual pass and upgrade to an in-person pass before the upgrade window closes this summer.
We will email more information on hotels to pass holders in the coming weeks.
Yes, there will be a window in which you can upgrade your pass from virtual to in-person. The deadline will be some time this summer, but we have not announced a date yet. We will email all pass holders to make sure they have plenty of time to make the upgrade decision, if they so choose.
Not a problem! Your pass will still give you access to all of the virtual event. Unfortunately, we will not be able to refund you the difference in price, though.
Not a problem! You can email us at admin@finconexpo.com to upgrade your pass.
If you transferred your pass from 2020, you have the same pass for 2021 that you registered for in 2020. (Ex: If you registered for a basic pass for #FinCon2020, you have a basic pass for #FinCon21.) In the Fall, you should have received an email from TicketSpice when your pass was transferred. If you did not, email us at admin@finconexpo.com and we’ll look it up for you.
For planning purposes, we will reach out to all existing pass holders (transfers from #FinCon2020 OR those who purchased in the exclusive sale after #FinConX) in the coming months to find out if you’ll be using your pass to attend either virtually or in person.
Good news! If you transferred your pass from #FinCon2020 OR if you purchased your pass in the exclusive sale after #FinConX, you automatically get the swag pack (including the limited edition #FinCon21 t-shirt) with your pass. You do not need to purchase an additional swag pack.
Good news! If you transferred your pass from #FinCon2020 OR if you purchased your pass in the exclusive sale after #FinConX, you automatically get lifetime access to all #FinCon21 digital recordings. You do not need to purchase the lifetime access.
