Gerard Adams is an experienced visionary, serial entrepreneur, and self-made multi-millionaire by the age of 24. From a young age, Gerard had always showed interest in investing opportunities. He started following the stock market as a teenager, and made his first investment by the age of 15. A fundamentalist at heart, his success on Wall Street was a direct result of his uncanny ability to analyze and identify undiscovered, undervalued companies. A creative, out-of-the-box thinker, one of his key talents and strategies lies in discovering future niche trends. Gerard first started his entrepreneurial path right after graduating from high school in northern New Jersey.

While in college, Gerard quickly realized that higher education is a business, and actually one of the biggest businesses in the world. This business teaches students that the path to success requires a degree, and most students graduate with exorbitant student loan debt. It was evident to Gerard that this was not the path he dreamed would lead to a successful career, and his instincts told him to take the entrepreneurial route that he knew was in his blood since he was a teenager.

Since Gerard started investing in the stock market at a very early age, he quickly recognized that the internet was becoming a powerful tool to source information. He started his first online business in 2004, a stock forum, which became one of the most highly-trafficked financial forums on the internet. Because very few stock forums that were popular at that time had any credibility for the members sharing information, Gerard built his forum around a rating system similar to eBay: members of the portal were able to see by rank, status, and comments, who was an amateur and who was a stock-picking guru. Gerard quickly became one of the top stock-picking gurus on this forum, with tens of thousands of members. The website was ranked in the top 50,000 websites by Alexa and as the forum grew, so did Gerard’s reputation.

In 2005, Gerard started getting contacted by publicly-traded companies looking to receive investor awareness based on his research abilities and passion for journalism. Gerard sold the forum in 2006 to start his own investor relations and financial marketing company on the web, Wall Street Grand.

Wall Street Grand was ranked one of the top 3 marketing firms for small cap publicly traded companies nationwide, for several years. Working with hundreds of companies in diverse industries, Gerard quickly became marketing-savvy. Gerard has a passion for due diligence, which is one of the most important characteristics to success in any business. Gerard takes his due diligence on behalf of the companies he represents very seriously, going so far as to personally visit companies’ operations around the world.

In an article published in 2009, Mr. Adams correctly predicted that a rapidly rising U.S. dollar index would be temporary and recommended an investment in gold as a way of leveraging the risk that was rampant in the markets with inflation, claiming that “once the unnatural deleveraging and panic selling pressure becomes exhausted, Gold will look to explode.”

Gold was then priced at $800 an ounce. Gerard invested $500,000 in Great Panther Silver at that time at $1 per share before running to $5 per share in just 6 months. That year, Gerard’s performance average was 245% in gains on over 20 stock suggestions. wallstreetgrand performance

WallStreetGrand.com is still recognized as one of the top destinations for stock suggestions with its division for marketing under a new company, Equities Awareness Group.

Currently, EAG is the leading financial marketing firm for small-cap public companies. Gerard built and developed the management team at EAG. To date, Mr. Adams receives a royalty from EAG for consultation, though he is no longer a principal in the company.

In 2010, Gerard’s interest in financial marketing and his libertarian tendencies led him to study macro-economics. Once Gerard realized that the government was misleading Americans to believe that our economy was healthy, despite being bankrupt and in the worst debt crisis our nation has ever seen, Gerard realized it was his duty as a young leader to spread the truth about our economy. Gerard’s mission was to educate Americans on how not only to survive during these hard times, but also how to prosper. This led him to start the National Inflation Association, www.inflation.us. NIA has an impeccable track record for their stock suggestions, which the company makes million-dollar investments into with full disclosures. Currently, Gerard is invested in mobile and video technology companies focusing on the “TV Everywhere” sectors.  To learn more about NIA please visit http://inflation.us/about.html and sign up for the newsletter at www.inflation.us. NIA has made several critically-acclaimed documentaries starring Gerard Adams, which have received millions of views on YouT ube. Documentaries are all on Gerard’s video page – “College Conspiracy,” “The Day The Dollar Died,” “Melt Up,” “End of Liberty,” “The Dollar Bubble,” and “Hyperinflation Nation.”

From his success as an investor, economist, journalist, and marketer, Gerard is now diversifying his entrepreneurship. His latest investment has been in what he believes to be the fastest-growing business idea he’s been involved with yet: EliteDaily.com.  Gerard co-founded, invested in, and developed the management team at Elite Daily, which was formed in December 2011.  Located in the heart of Manhattan, Elite Daily has quickly become the number-one online platform for news, entertainment, culture, and motivational editorials geared towards millennials.  Elite Daily, also known as “The Voice of Generation Y,” has grown from 30,000 monthly users to over 8 million, in only a year, and continues to grow exponentially. The company staff has grown from 3 to 30, and has 250 writing contributors from around the world, as well as partnerships with some of the biggest names in media including MTV, Huffington Post, and Business Insider.  For the post-college-age generation, success is more attainable than ever, but there are few sources that show them the road map to get there. Elite Daily is the platform publication that accomplishes this goal for Generation Y.  Presently, Gerard is the President of the Company.

Seeking an even more powerful presence with Gen Y, Gerard co-founded Steelos Group, which is an online menswear shop: www.Steelos.com.  Steelos, whose name originates from the Spanish word [estilo] for style, manner, or fashion, is bridging the gap between men’s high fashion and contemporary street-wear at obtainable prices. The company is located in the heart of New York’s Fashion district, and can bring the Madison Avenue look to customers without the hassle of overpriced clothes and long lines. The company currently has a content partnership with EliteDaily.com, consistently bringing the latest in menswear news, trends, and an exclusive “Shop the Look” feature.  For more information or shop please visit www.Steelos.com.

When it comes to innovation, Gerard could not resist when the next venture, MiraKill™ Brands, was presented to him. As the saying goes, sometimes “it’s more about who you know, than what you know.”  It’s always been extremely important to Gerard to build strong relationships with many successful colleagues, savvy investors, and other entrepreneurs… not to mention friends. Through his network, Gerard was able to become partner in MiraKill™ Brands, formed in 2012. MiraKill™ Brands has developed the leading brand in affordable anti-microbial built-in technology. A green technology which is completely manufactured in the USA, MiraKill™ has quickly become a reliable household name for germ-free product protection. Currently, MiraKill™ is trade secreted, trademarked, patent pending, FDA approved, and EPA approved for over 100 products. After 5 years of hard work and determination, MiraKill™ is currently executing its go-to-market strategy. Current market initiatives are in the household, medical, hospitality, fitness, mobile and retail industries. For more information or an investor kit please visit www.Mirakill.com.

Gerard Adams is also proud to be a partner in another company that is not only a major investment opportunity, but also fulfills a huge unmet niche in the medical device industry that helps thousands of people in need. KD Healthcare USA, has spent millions of dollars to develop the most innovative and lightweight electric wheelchair ever to hit the market in the USA. Weighing under 50lbs, this wheelchair has the most advanced battery technology ever used and has a proprietary folding mechanism suitable for low maintenance. KD Healthcare USA has donated the “KD SmartChair” to recent victims of the Boston Marathon bombing who lost their legs. For more information on the KD SmartChair please visit www.KDSmartChair.com.

It doesn’t stop there, as Gerard Adams, 28 of age, believes he is in his prime, with the goal of selling his next company within 2 years.

Gerard has successfully invested in building and refurbishing 2- and 4-family homes in urban areas near where he grew up in New Jersey. Not only did Gerard develop affordable housing for communities in Newark and Irvington, but he also donates generously to his parish at St. Lucy’s Church in Newark. St. Lucy’s is where Gerard helps run the St. Gerard Youth Committee, giving back to the church and investing in its 100+ years of traditions. St. Lucy’s Church features a shrine to St. Gerard, the religious icon for whom Gerard Adams is named.
