Laurence D. Fink - Personal Life

Personal Life

Fink's eldest son, Joshua, is chief executive officer of Enso Capital. Joshua's father owns a stake in that hedge fund.

Larry Fink flies on commercial airlines (unlike most other Fortune-500 CEOs). Likewise, according to an interviewer, he takes the train rather than a private jet when he spends time at his 26-acre country estate in North Salem, New York, about 50 miles from his NYC office.

Fink has been married to his wife Lori since the mid-1970s. Aside from homes in Manhattan and North Salem, they also have a home in Aspen, Colorado. He enjoys fly fishing and skiing, and has a collection of American folk art. The Finks have three children and they are also grandparents. He is a lifelong Democrat.

Famous quotes containing the words personal life, personal and/or life:

    Wherever the State touches the personal life of the infant, the child, the youth, or the aged, helpless, defective in mind, body or moral nature, there the State enters “woman’s peculiar sphere,” her sphere of motherly succor and training, her sphere of sympathetic and self-sacrificing ministration to individual lives.
    Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)

    In contrast with envy, which usually occurs between two people and is focused upon another person’s qualities or possessions, jealousy occurs when a third person becomes a threat to a dyad. Jealousy involves the loss or the impending loss of a relationship that one wants to hold onto, a relationship that is vital to personal fulfillment and claimed as one’s own.
    Carol S. Becker (b. 1942)

    By degrees we may come to know the primitive sense of the permanent objects of nature, so that the world shall be to us an open book, and every form significant of its hidden life and final cause.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
