Description: I want to discuss financial hacking for new and existing hacker spaces, and to attack the myths that have been built up against money and money management. Money is a tool, a means to an end. Just as a laser cutter enables you to cut accurate models to build, careful management of your finances enables you to do what you want, such as getting a supercomputer for your space. Topics I will cover include: organizing a sustainable hacker space in which membership adequately covers overhead expenses (rent, utilities, tools, maintenance), smart long-term saving to fund cool projects, filing for 501(c)(3) status, fiscal sponsorship, and marketing/PR to raise funds. The presentation will end with a discussion on the future potential of hacker spaces, their role in revolutionizing public education, as well as the importance of creativity in science.
