My guest in this episode is Kim Snider Hughes. Kim has spent 20+ years as an entrepreneur, options trader, investment advisor, financial engineer, author, speaker, educator, and financial radio talk show host.Kim got into investing in the mid-90s, after having made a seven figure windfall in an IPO before the age of 30, entrusting it to a well-known Wall Street brokerage firm, which proceeded to lose everything she hadn't managed to spend.

Out of self-defense, and a little bit of payback, Kim created what years later came to be known as the Snider Investment Method, a system of producing consistent cash flow from paper assets at a significantly higher rate than traditional, non-engineered investments.
