 Stu Zimmerman is the founder of Inside Wealth at www.insidewealth.net, which I urge you to take a moment to visit. While we usually focus on minority women in business on this blog, I want to share Stu's story with you: it's amazing. He's a fellow Cornellian and graduate with an MBA in Finance from Northeastern University. He worked as a stockbroker in the early 90's, growing the assets under management at one of his private investment firms by two hundred fold. He then started his own firm, Zimco Advisors, through which he managed over $30 million in the stock market for high net worth individuals. Just as he was reaching the pinnacle of his personal success, his wife was diagnosed with terminal cancer, and he "realized that true security and wealth is not measured in dollars." He now spends his time educating others, being active in his philanthropic efforts, and following through with the mission of awakening, inspiring, and empowering his listeners to raise their quality of life... independent of their income level.

Inside Wealth: The Ultimate Disclosure with Stuart Zimmerman is a talk-radio wake-up call that awakens, inspires and empowers its listeners to raise their quality of life… independent of their income level.
