In our conversation we talk about how Aaron has managed to be very entrepreneurial within the media companies he’s worked for. How has he done and how does he continue to strengthen his personal brand within a corporate brand? We also take a trip down memory lane and discuss the lessons we both learned about harnessing the power of multimedia at TheStreet.com…with big thanks to Jim Cramer, our leader. And he shares his biggest money mistake and success…both had to do with the same thing. Listen to the episode and you’ll know what I mean.
