Lay of The Land #182: Dan Nitowsky (Tiger21) — Wealth Preservation, Legacy, and Ultra-High-Net-Worth Peer Support
Dan Nitowsky, Chair of TIGER 21 Cleveland.
Dan, like me is a native New Yorker who has made Cleveland his home & has spent 30 years here in Cleveland as a highly accomplished executive with a proven history of success in distribution and manufacturing, with leadership roles in the Electrical Distribution industry — where expanded Mars Electric from one single location to 11 locations through Northeast Ohio and grew sales from under $10 million to over $53 million. This was all prior to his work in peer-group leadership, where his expertise led him to be a Peer Advisory Group Chair for Vistage Worldwide — one of the world’s largest executive coaching organizations for small and mid-sized businesses — in addition to his current work as the inaugural Chair for TIGER 21’s Cleveland Chapter.
TIGER 21 is the premier peer membership organization for ultra-high-net-worth individuals. The organization has over 1,400 members with over $20 million in investable assets, respectively, across over 50 cities worldwide, and it has more than $160 billion in personal assets collectively.
In his role as a Chair for TIGER 21 in this inaugural Cleveland Chapter, Dan facilitates a trusted and confidential community of entrepreneurs here that provides Members with their board of directors and helps facilitate learning and conversation for those who are motivated to grow and protect their wealth while building a lasting legacy.
In our conversation, we explore what professional peer groups even are, the unique challenges that come after a major financial liquidity event, solutions for a balanced life, what kind of thought is afforded to legacy, how to instill good grounded values into your children with extraordinary family wealth, insights around wealth preservation, and many more esoteric topics discussed by TIGER 21 members.
This is a fascinating discussion behind the scenes of what can transpire for those on the other side of entrepreneurial success and wealth
