What’s Ader going to do?

Ader, who’s being coy about his plans, has spent the past few months in temporary office space at U.S. Realty Advisors, a $5 billion investment firm founded and run by his father, Richard Ader. There, he tells II in an e-mail message, he has been “making personal investments and gearing up to pursue a new business venture separate from U.S. Realty.” Ader, who frequently appeared on II‘s All-America Research Team, says that since leaving the Street in February, he’s turned down an offer to move to Las Vegas as a gaming company executive, had a book and screenplay deal dangled in front of him and been asked to serve as a director of two public companies. “I just got married, and my plan is to enjoy the summer and make a decision this fall,” he says. But sources say that he wants to run money. Word is, his new firm will be called Hayground Cove, after a favorite Hamptons retreat.
