History
Worth was founded in 1992 as a wealth management magazine for high net worth individuals. Under its current ownership, the magazine underwent a significant redesign in the spring of 2009 with a continued focus on topics related to both wealth creation and wealth management, including philanthropy and passion investments.
The magazine was purchased in February 2008 by Sandow Media. In May 2009, Sandow Media announced a total re-invention of the 18-year-old financial title Worth, including a new tagline: “The Evolution of Financial Intelligence.” The brand was re-created with an aim to serve a select group of high net worth individuals with an avid interest in the stewardship of their personal wealth. Featuring a cutting-edge design and compact format and printed on paper typically reserved for books, the magazine is geared to be an elegant, practical and portable resource for CEOs, entrepreneurs and investors.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Like their personal lives, women’s history is fragmented, interrupted; a shadow history of human beings whose existence has been shaped by the efforts and the demands of others.”
—Elizabeth Janeway (b. 1913)
“History is not what you thought. It is what you can remember. All other history defeats itself.
In Beverly Hills ... they don’t throw their garbage away. They make it into television shows.
Idealism is the despot of thought, just as politics is the despot of will.”
—Mikhail Bakunin (1814–1876)
“I am ashamed to see what a shallow village tale our so-called History is. How many times must we say Rome, and Paris, and Constantinople! What does Rome know of rat and lizard? What are Olympiads and Consulates to these neighboring systems of being? Nay, what food or experience or succor have they for the Esquimaux seal-hunter, or the Kanaka in his canoe, for the fisherman, the stevedore, the porter?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
