    Real Talk: The Charles Mizrahi Show

    I’m Charles Mizrahi.

    I currently write Alpha Investor — one of America’s fastest-growing investment publications — and have had nearly 40 years of experience as a floor trader, hedge fund manager and money manager on Wall Street.

    In fact, I was once named the No. 1 trader in the nation by Barron’s.

    But the story of my rise through the ranks is about more than just success — it’s about achieving the American Dream.

    You see, I didn’t grow up wealthy. But I did grow up with the belief that America was the greatest nation on earth — a land of freedom and opportunity.

    And right now, I’m on a mission to prove that it still is.
    Although we’re constantly being told by the media that America’s best days are behind her … I know the opposite to be true.

    That’s exactly why I started Real Talk: The Charles Mizrahi Show.

    With this podcast, I want to help you — and as many other Americans as possible — rekindle the American Dream and realize that we, the people, have everything we need to get ourselves back on track.

    Each episode features in-depth conversations with high-profile guests who share their own unique American Dream stories, and their views on the current state of our nation.

    I’ll also share with you my passion for teaching everyday people how to prosper through America’s greatest wealth creator: the stock market.

    Because I believe we all have a patriotic duty to give back to this country — which has done so much for us.

    If you’re at a poker table and you don’t know who the patsy is, you’re it. That’s the bottom line on IPOs — initial public offerings.

    There’s always time to buy quality businesses — one year, two years out. In fact, probably the worst time to buy a stock is at the IPO. But that’s exactly when most retail investors buy them.

    Once you listen to my conversation with Dakin Campbell, you’ll never want to buy an IPO again. In fact, tech companies have wised up and avoid IPOs.

    In his latest book, “Going Public: How Silicon Valley Rebels Loosened Wall Street's Grip on the IPO and Sparked a Revolution,” you’ll see why the retail investor is the patsy.

    Topics Discussed:

    • An Introduction to Dakin Campbell (00:00:00)
    • Why Companies Go Public (00:04:41)
    • How Steve Jobs Dealt with Apple’s IPO (00:09:10)
    • Leaving Money on the Table (00:14:43)
    • Empowering You to Take Advantage of the System (00:44:33)

    Guest Bio:

    Dakin Campbell is the Chief Finance Correspondent at Business Insider. He is the publication's senior reporter covering Wall Street. Before that he wrote for Bloomberg for more than a decade.

    His latest book is “Going Public: How Silicon Valley Rebels Loosened Wall Street's Grip on the IPO and Sparked a Revolution.”

    He was known to millions as Crazy Eddie. Eddie Antar turned a tiny Brooklyn store into the largest electronics retailer. In the 1970s and 1980s, his commercials were everywhere.

    “Crazy Eddie! His prices are insaaaaane!" They were even spoofed on Saturday Night Live. But Crazy Eddie’s success was a fraud from day one.

    In fact, before Enron, Madoff, and The Wolf of Wall Street, Antar's corruption was second to none. When it was uncovered, it turned out to be one of the largest SEC frauds in American history.

    I recently sat down with Gary Weiss, author of Retail Gangster: The Insane, Real-Life Story of Crazy Eddie. What Weiss told me affirms the old adage that truth is often stranger than fiction.

    Topics Discussed:

    • An Introduction to Gary Weiss (00:00:00)
    • Who’s Crazy Eddie? (00:02:42)

    • Two of the Unluckiest Takeover Artists in the History of Takeovers (00:41:50)
    • What Happens to the Antars? (00:48:34)

    Guest Bio:

    Gary Weiss is an American journalist and author. He’s been uncovering Wall Street wrongdoing for nearly two decades. He’s written for Barron’s, Businessweek, as well as Conde Nast Portfolio.

    His latest book is “Retail Gangster: The Insane, Real-Life Story of Crazy Eddie.”

    Bill Gross was soon looking for a way to use his skills to make money — big money. He turned American finance into his casino and became known as the “Bond King.”

    Gross went on to found PIMCO, a leader in fixed-income management that has $2 trillion under management.

    Author Mary Childs covers it all in her book, The Bond King: How One Man Made a Market, Built an Empire, and Lost It All.

Before that, she worked at the Financial Times and Bloomberg News. She's written about the pioneering of new asset classes like time, billionaires' proposals to solve inequality and diversity and discrimination in the finance industry. Before all that, she was also a Watson Fellow, spending a year traveling the world painting portraits. She graduated from Washington & Lee University in Lexington, Virginia, with a degree in business journalism and an honors thesis comparing the use and significance of media sting operations in the U.S. and India.

    Gross worked as a reporter at The New Republic and Bloomberg News, wrote the “Economic View” column in The New York Times, and served as Slate’s “Moneybox” columnist.
