ABOUT ME: I've hosted a personal finance TV show on the Oprah Winfrey Network, used to be a stockbroker, went to school to become a racecar driver (failed), founded a fintech company that provides financial planning software to financial advisors who want to help more people who don't have lots of money, and I consult with wealth management companies on commercializing applications of behavioral finance. I'm also quite fond of donuts.
