Todd is a former hedge fund manager who "retired" at age 35 to become a financial educator and consumer advocate. He began FinancialMentor.Com on the premise that quality financial education must be separated from investment product sales to reduce conflict of interest. He is the author of 5 books including the best seller "How Much Money Do I Need To Retire" and is now creating the (soon to be) industry standard wealth building curriculum "7 Steps To 7 Figures".
