Gerard Adams (born December 20, 1984) is an American serial entrepreneur, millennial branding expert, philanthropist, and business executive. Adams is best known as co-founder of Elite Daily, known as the “voice of Generation Y”, which sold to the Daily Mail in 2015 for $50 million.
Adams was born in Livingston, New Jersey in 1984, and grew up in Belleville, New Jersey with a father who worked for Prudential Financial and a mother who worked at A&P. In an interview with BeYou, Adams said he was born with a “natural hustle mentality.”
He graduated from Belleville High School and became interested in the stock market at the urging of his father, who asked him to look up Prudential stock. He spent one semester at Caldwell University before he dropped out to work for an investor relation’s firm.
In the 2000s, Adams was inspired by online forums on Raging Bull and Silicon Investor, which he said had contributors who lacked credibility, and added a ratings system to his own forum to found Wall Street Grand. The website included a 5-star ratings feature to evaluate writer contributions. Adams claimed he grew Wall Street Grand to $10 million in revenue before the 2008 stock market crash. He founded several other finance-related companies, including an online investor-relations and financial-marketing company, and the National Inflation Association, which educates consumers on how to survive in any economic environment.

New York City makes up over 40% of the population of New York State. Two-thirds of the state's population lives in the New York City Metropolitan Area, and nearly 40% live on Long Island. Both the state and New York City were named for the 17th century Duke of York, future King James II of England. The next four most populous cities in the state are Buffalo, Rochester, Yonkers, and Syracuse, while the state capital is Albany.
