Omar Naeem

Founder, Lw3

In 1997 Omar aimlessly wandered into the world of high finance and spent almost 8 years in a variety of forgettable roles with even more forgettable results. Saddled with almost $1mm of debt and a James Dolan like streak of mediocrity and disappointment he finally realized something had to change. After a failed 6 month run as a professional Powerball player he also came to the conclusion he wasn’t good with numbers. Rather than move into his parents basement he launched Lou & Sons in 2005, mainly so no one would ever be able to fire him again.  Lw3 is a marriage of the relationships from Lou & Sons and the mission of empowering the LP and GP community.
