Wall Street Farms, Inc., Memphis, TN

  • Quarter Horse Training Facility

  • Pecan Orchard and Hay Operation

In the mid 80’s, the biggest concern for high-net-worth individuals was the 50% tax bracket.  This created the opportunity to show investors how to own a Show Horse, which competed for money, and provided them the self-satisfaction of owning a horse that would take them to the winner’s circle.  In order to meet the demands of this desire; I was responsible for the Start-up, management, recruiting, training and supervision of managers and staffing, new-product research & development, retail, agriculture, livestock, tax-shelter, relationship development, and new client procurement.  Within 2 years of inception, Wall Street Farms dominated the western pleasure quarter horse industry and had sold over $4,000,000 of equestrian tax shelters.

The Quarter Horse Division which kept 40 to 60 show-horses, show-horse prospects, and broodmares in inventory for sale.  It had a Division Manager, plus seven full time employees who trained and showed horses.
