From financial clarity to fulfillment
See your whole financial picture.
Everything you’ll earn, own, owe and spend between now and the end of your life, in one picture, including the surplus that on your current plan you’ll never spend. Most people have never seen their finances this way. It takes about five minutes with numbers you already know roughly, and nothing has to be exact.
Understand what makes a life fulfilling.
The Fulfillment Tree turns the research on money and well-being into a framework you can apply to your own life. Most people have never separated the spending that makes their life better from the spending that doesn’t.
Reflect, then make a plan.
The rest of the Foundations Program asks about your values, your work and what you want more of. From your answers we build an Action Plan together, with changes you can start this month.
Go deeper on what matters most.
Work through your top priorities with self-paced programs, and live coaching if you want it.
We’d assumed we needed another ten years at the same pace before we could change anything. Seeing the whole picture showed us we already had room to change our life, and the program helped us work out exactly how we’d do that with no judgment at all.
Questions
What does it cost?
Nothing, and we keep costs low so it stays that way. Original Position is funded entirely by donations from people who’ve been through the program and found it valuable enough to pay it forward.
Why are you a nonprofit?
Because nobody needs to make money from it. There are no investors expecting a return, so there’s no reason for us to sell your data, push an upgrade, or keep you in the app longer than is useful to you.
When I worked through the questions Original Position asks, I found I’d already hit “enough.” Any profit beyond a fair salary would have ended up given away, so it made more sense to set it up without a surplus to take in the first place.
What happens to my numbers?
The preview runs in your browser, and your numbers stay there unless you create an account to save your picture. We never sell your information.
Is this financial advice?
No. Your picture is a projection built from the numbers you enter, under assumptions you can see. It’s not a forecast or a recommendation, and we’re not financial advisors.
From the people who’ve done it.
I love the concept of not necessarily return on investment but return on fulfillment per dollar.
How likely are you to recommend this experience to a friend or colleague?
9.5/10Financial planning can be pretty cold, and I just wasn’t expecting those questions. I was like, ‘S***, this is actually making me think.’
Closed beta. Three questions, and we’ll be in touch. Free, built by a nonprofit.
