Associate Professor of Finance
School: NYU Stern
This Belgium-born professor is a true financial whiz kid. His deep obsession with economics and business is even evident in how he named his sons: Paul is named after several economists (Samuelson, Volcker, Romer), while Henry is named after two business giants (Ford and Hudson, the man who discovered Manhattan).
NEXT: Lubos Pastor, 36
