Aloha and thanks for visiting Pluranomics,
I grew up in a small town outside of Boston, MA and graduated from University of Michigan (Go Blue!) in 1996.
After college, I travelled the country for the next 10 years pursuing investments in all kinds of real estate buildings and land on behalf of Pension Fund & Endowment money. I spent 3 years in Chicago at Heitman Financial as a financial analyst; and the following 7 years as a partner at Greenfield Partners, a private equity firm based in Connecticut. Our investment size ranged from $5M to $400M. Along the way, I learned I had a unique ability for finding value and negotiating an investment portfolio.
In 2004, I left Greenfield Partners and the world of private equity real estate to pursue my own vision: JADE, a Mini-Stockmarket Investment Vehicle, with a focus on Renewable Energy Real Estate. After finalizing the Jade business plan and investor presentation in 2005, I started studying economic books and writing about my economic strategy and theory. David Port, my wife Genna, and I published The New Game in the summer of 2007.
I did not know our economy would ever be in its current state, but I had a strong feeling we were not headed in the right direction. So I followed my own nose in my travels and my studies to learn and write as much as I could about this most mysterious subject matter. It is a weird feeling, but all this economic stuff makes a lot of sense to me.
“Plura” stands for “many”, and “nomics”, is from economics, a subject matter that we all need to learn more about, and quickly. Pluranomics may seem “alternative”, but I can assure you that it is not without the input of some of the greatest economic teachers throughout our history; many of which predicted our existing circumstances and have lived through similar ones dating back to the 1600’s.
The website is currently a collection of my most recent writings/blogs, as well as copies and links to the blogs I have written on other’s websites over the past year. It attempts to document my predictions as well as my solutions. As you will see, my fundamental approach to economics has given me the foresight to be most accurate about the current state of the economy.
We are in a most opportunistic economic time. If we are able to educate ourselves, we will be able to take advantage of it.
With logic and patience, I continue to invest in and write about Pluranomics from Hawaii. I welcome you to Pluranomics with hope that you too will play The New Game.
