Whether it involves wealth management, potential Division 1 basketball players or Thoroughbreds, Brian Klatsky’s life revolves around prospects.
No wonder the divorced single father of two sons talks fast. No wonder colleagues are deprived of sleep by late-night conversations or jarred awake by early-morning texts or calls. Klatsky has a full-time job three times over.
He is a partner in New York-based Gold Coast Wealth Management. He started and oversees New Jersey-based Team Rio, a high-powered AAU program that develops girls and boys basketball players with an eye toward competing at the highest collegiate levels. And he is a founding partner in BBN Racing, which is national in scope and is enjoying startling early success. It has produced Hidden Stash, a Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve starter, from only the second crop of horses it purchased.
