"NO LIMITS: FROM THE PROJECTS TO THE PEAK OF POWER" Follow us on all our social platforms @GrantCardone In this powerhouse episode of The Cardone Zone, Grant brings you two extraordinary stories of ascent from nothing to the top of the business world—real-life proof that your beginnings don't determine your finish line. First, Grant sits down with a real-estate force who went from $600 in his pocket to managing a $4 BILLION development pipeline. He breaks down the mindset shift that took him from pumping gas and cleaning dental offices to building Angel's Landing, one of the boldest developments in downtown Los Angeles.  His message is clear: Cash flow beats net worth. Money should work harder than you do. Action destroys excuses. His journey—from a childhood shaped by the struggles of the segregation era to sitting at the table with Senators, bankers, and decision-makers by age 26—proves that the American Dream belongs to anyone willing to hustle, learn, and never quit. Then Grant welcomes Lloyd Blankfein, former CEO of Goldman Sachs, a man who helped generate over half a trillion dollars in revenue during his run. But instead of a privileged Wall Street origin story, Lloyd reveals the truth: He grew up in Brooklyn public housing, hustling from age 13—selling popcorn at Yankee Stadium, delivering prescriptions, tutoring for $1.50 an hour—all fueled by one thing: escaping poverty. His parents worked blue-collar jobs, and the motivation of "no choice but to succeed" pushed him from a tough NYC school to Harvard on a scholarship, and eventually to the top of global finance. Lloyd shares what it was like sitting across from titans like Bezos, Musk, and the world's most powerful financial players—proving that ambition, discipline, and refusing to stay stuck can take you from the projects to the pinnacle of power. This episode is pure jet fuel for anyone ready to stop making excuses and start making moves.

Jeffrey Epstein reportedly used his financial network to gain access to exclusive allocations of hot initial public offerings (IPOs) through his J. Epstein VI Foundation and other investment channels, flipping shares for rapid profits. Investigations into nonprofit tax filings revealed that his foundation was allocated shares in dozens of underwritten offerings—IPOs traditionally reserved for elite institutional or high-value private investors tied into powerful banking relationships. These preferential deals helped bolster Epstein's wealth significantly and reinforced the perception that his influence was deeply intertwined with Wall Street power brokers. The filings raised questions about how someone with no substantial record of public investment activity and a largely opaque business structure was able to bypass standard financial scrutiny and secure rare IPO placements typically reserved for major strategic clients.Simultaneously, Epstein maintained relationships with major financial institutions such as Goldman Sachs and HSBC, which helped enable his access to investment networks and sophisticated global money-movement tools. While full clarity over every IPO trade remains elusive due to limited public disclosure and sealed banking records, the combination of preferential access to IPO allocations, secretive banking relationships, and offshore structures continues to fuel debate about how Epstein amassed his fortune and whether financial institutions facilitated his rise through lax compliance or intentional preference. These unresolved questions remain central to ongoing calls for deeper financial transparency around the Epstein network and the systemic vulnerability that allowed it to operate for decades.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Running a small business feels like jumping out of a plane and building the parachute on the way down… all while managing a team, cash flow, and our kid's snack schedule. In this LIVE episode at the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses Summit, I sit down with three women who prove that entrepreneurship isn't just about revenue and hiring — it's about who you become while you're building. You'll hear from: Natalie Kaddas - CEO of Kaddas Enterprises and respected community and business leader who serves on the San Francisco Federal Reserve Board and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Natalie talks about: Using her seat at powerful tables to make sure small business voices are heard, even when those business owners can't be in the room. How the 10KSB program helped her dream bigger, pivot, and grow from survival mode into strategic leadership. Why confidence is built like a muscle: through showing up, practicing, and doing it scared instead of waiting to “feel ready.” Tessa Arneson - Co-founder of Maven District, where a pilates studio has evolved into a vibrant, women-powered real estate and community hub where 75% of the businesses are women-owned. Tessa is on a mission to help women lead with their whole selves — with love and curiosity — without burning out in the process. In this conversation, Tessa pulls back the curtain on: Why she doesn't believe you can “do it all” and why the grind-24/7, “sleep-when-you're-dead” hustle culture is a fast track to mental and physical collapse — especially for women. Her non-negotiable rituals for staying well while running a business How her business partner, Rocky, taught their team to use top 3 daily priorities Her advice to women who want to start a business but are scared Perlla Deluca - Owner & CEO of Southeast Constructors and founder of the Pink Hard Hat Foundation, Perlla is an immigrant woman thriving in construction — and building a movement for women and people of color in the trades. In this episode, she shares: How the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses program helped her learn financials and leverage, leading her to eventually open a school and foundation — all powered by access to capital and the belief that she could do more. How she refuses to let negativity live rent-free in her mind, using gratitude and mindset as daily practices, especially when things are hard. Why success, for her, is measured in people and growth, not money — and why she's more excited about her students buying homes than she is about her own wins. A big thank-you to Goldman Sachs for the work they're doing through the 10,000 Small Businesses program — a $750 million commitment helping entrepreneurs across the U.S. grow, hire, and lead through education, support, and access to capital.

Jim Hill and Eric Hersey trace the ambitious — and ultimately ill-fated — vision for Universal's Dark Universe, from the scrapped sequel to The Mummy to Tom Cruise's push to reinvent himself as the studio's modern Van Helsing. NEWS Universal courts talent and headlines by hiring Mark Platt and director Lorene Scafaria for a Sabrina Carpenter–led Alice in Wonderland musical. Comcast explores a bid for Warner Bros. Discovery, with Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs advising. Competing interest from Netflix and Apple raises the stakes ahead of WBD's planned corporate split. Peacock sets a new premiere date for The Epic Ride documentary, now featuring rare dragon-drone testing footage from Epic Universe. A closer look at how the industry shake-ups could affect theme park rights, licensing, and future Universal IP development. FEATURE The original plan for a direct sequel to 2017's The Mummy — and how the story would have expanded Dr. Jekyll's organization and the gods-and-monsters mythology. Why Tom Cruise's version of Nick Morton was conceived as the entry point to a larger shared universe… and how internal plans positioned him as the modern Van Helsing, monster hunter and connective tissue between films. How Cruise's hands-on creative control — the same instinct that later led Top Gun: Maverick to a $1.4B box office — clashed with Universal's rollout of the Dark Universe brand. A breakdown of what actually killed the Dark Universe: mismatched expectations, a premature cinematic universe announcement, and a marketing campaign Cruise felt undermined the film he delivered. Why Epic Universe's Dark Universe land succeeds where the films didn't — channeling classic-monster storytelling without the burden of a forced franchise blueprint.

Een paar maanden geleden was het nog ABN Amro zelf die op de snijtafel lag. Het Belgische KBC zou het willen overnemen. Maar nu zijn de rollen omgedraaid, en is ABN degene die het opslokken doet. Voor een kleine miljard euro nemen ze het Haagse NIBC over van eigenaar Blackstone. Een kans om ABN Amro sterker te maken in de Nederlandse markt. En zeker geen beschermingsconstructie tegen een mogelijke overname door KBC, zegt topvrouw Marguerite Bérard. Maar of ze de waarheid spreekt? Dat zoeken we deze aflevering uit.

In this engaging episode of "It's the Bottom Line That Matters," hosts Jennifer Glass, Daniel McCraine and Patricia Reszetylo are in for an honest exploration into what they call the “CEO ID crisis”—the struggle of business owners who find themselves constantly switching hats and drowning in operational tasks. The conversation kicks off with a playful inquiry about how many metaphorical hats each person is wearing at the moment, quickly revealing a common pain point among entrepreneurs: doing too much, often out of necessity. Patricia candidly shares her frustration at being stuck in the “worker bee” role instead of focusing on high-level strategy, and Daniel admits how easy it is to slip between CEO, consultant, project manager, and even accounts payable, sometimes all within a single hour.The trio delves into real-world examples of what it means to balance resources and responsibilities. Jennifer recounts her own experiences of taking on nearly every job in a startup, emphasizing that just because you can do everything doesn't mean you should. They dig into the nitty-gritty of delegation, with Jennifer giving her rule of thumb on outsourcing tasks that take more than five minutes, while both Daniel and Patricia reflect on when and how to train others to step up. Daniel shares his recent journey in hiring an assistant for a complex, risk-laden area of his business, recognizing the up-front investment in training will pay off as he gradually steps out of the weeds. Patricia expresses both the challenges and motivational shifts she's felt during these growing pains, noting the impact of outsourcing on both efficiency and peace of mind.Throughout the episode, the hosts debate the fine line between staying connected to mission-critical areas—like finance, sales, and marketing—and learning when to let go and trust others, even to the point of letting them evolve the company beyond the founder's original vision. They cite lessons from their own mentors and programs like Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses, stressing that a true CEO must understand the numbers, keep their eye on key metrics, and ultimately operate as the strategic guide rather than chief everything officer. The show wraps up with actionable insights for entrepreneurs: identify the roles only you can fulfill, let go of the rest, and stay vigilant to avoid burning out or stalling your company's growth. Listeners are left with a motivational nudge to shed a few hats, step fully into leadership, and focus on the bottom line that really matters.KEYWORDS:small business owners, wearing many hats, business delegation, outsourcing tasks, working on the business, working in the business, CEO responsibilities, founder vs CEO, business strategy, supervisory roles, bookkeeping, accounting, social media management, virtual assistants, project management, staff training, business growth, financial management, business operations, time management, business mentorship, Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Business Program, business vision, executive decision making, distraction management, work-life balance, role delegation, business scaling, marketing supervision, sales oversightSpeaker Bios: Jennifer Glass, Daniel McCraine, and Patricia Reszetylo are dynamic business strategists, each with real-world experience growing companies and coaching entrepreneurs through their toughest challenges.

Together, JJ and Gopikrishnan explore what remains constant in great product management—customer empathy, communication, structured thinking, and stakeholder alignment—and what's changing fast as AI becomes central to how products are built, learned from, and improved.Listeners will learn how AI product managers differ from traditional ones, not because they code or build models, but because they design experiences that learn and evolve. Gopikrishnan explains how metrics shift (from satisfaction and revenue to latency, model performance, and hallucination rates), how teams expand to include machine learning scientists and evaluators, and why “being AI-aware” is now an essential product skill.Topics Covered:The evolution from traditional to AI product managementWhy PM fundamentals—empathy, communication, alignment—never go out of styleHow AI changes metrics, responsibility, and stakeholder complexityDesigning for trust, safety, and explainability in AI experiencesThe mindset shift from building features to architecting experiencesThe experimental nature of AI product work (build, test, learn, repeat)Why you don't need to be a machine learning expert to be an AI PMHow every PM will soon interact with AI in some formAdvice for PMs transitioning into AI and for new PMs entering the fieldKey Quotes:“AI product managers are not building a feature.

He shared how he built multiple income streams—from investing to trading—and how financial freedom granted him the ability to live life on his own schedule. The discussion reminded listeners that success isn't just about wealth; it's about having control over your time and energy. The Power of Location and Lifestyle Design We discussed the high costs and burnout culture of San Francisco compared to the slower, more fulfilling lifestyle Kam found in Dallas. He shared how geographic freedom has been key to his happiness and flexibility, proving that financial independence can also bring peace of mind. Trading, he noted, offered a career path that fit perfectly with his desire for flexibility and mobility. Smart Investing and the Role of Research We talked about the importance of doing deep research before making investment decisions. While AI tools can support the process, Kam and our team emphasized that critical thinking and due diligence remain essential. We also clarified that our discussion serves as educational insight, not financial advice. Risk-Free Trading Through Prop Firms Kam shared how he discovered prop firm trading after connecting with Mahul Patel, a former Goldman Sachs algorithm trader. Prop firms give traders access to leveraged capital with minimal personal risk—traders keep 80% of profits while risking only a small portion of their own funds. Kam explained how understanding this model opened doors to sustainable, low-risk trading opportunities. Futures Trading and Financial Leverage We explored futures trading, where markets run nearly 24/5, and discussed how this structure enables traders to maximize returns while maintaining low operational costs. Kam revealed that with about 10 hours of training per month, he learned strategies that outperformed many traditional side businesses. Together, we emphasized the discipline required to manage leveraged funds responsibly. Real Estate, Mentorship, and Managing Emotions The conversation turned to real estate, where we compared risk profiles and discussed the importance of mentorship—such as Kam's guidance from his uncle and professional brokers. Kam also reflected on how emotional regulation plays a crucial role in trading and investing success. His story of reaching millionaire status underscored the importance of mindset, patience, and mentorship in achieving financial goals. Final Reflections Kam's journey is a testament to the power of intentional living, strategic investing, and self-discipline. For those dreaming of leaving the 9-to-5 grind, this episode offers both inspiration and practical insight into how to make that transition responsibly and sustainably. Kam's bio: My name is Kam Dasani - I'm a top 1% Futures & Options trader who helps others escape the rat race through trading. If you think it's too good to be true, my team is ex-Goldman Sachs and we have $4M in capital that we are trading with. On this channel, I don't only talk about trading.

Greg Abbott threatens 100% tariffs on New Yorkers fleeing to Texas - and honestly, it's brilliant! While the media clutches their pearls about legality, Abbott's trolling perfectly captures what's happening as Wall Street heads south and major banks double down on Texas operations. Meanwhile, New York just elected a 34-year-old socialist with zero experience who's promising free everything - city-run grocery stores, rent freezes, and higher taxes on anyone with money left. Is anyone surprised that Goldman Sachs already has 4,500 workers in Dallas? What did progressives expect when they layer regulation after regulation while campaigning on "affordability" that their own policies destroyed? We're watching the great migration from blue states to red states accelerate in real time, and it's not just pandemic-era movement anymore - it's permanent business strategy. When you can't keep your hands off people's wallets AND can't keep crime under control, companies and wealthy individuals vote with their feet.

We're coming to you live from Washington, D.C., at the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses Summit—the largest gathering of small business owners in U.S. history. With more than 2,700 entrepreneurs in one place, the energy is electric, and the conversations are powerful. Among them is our guest, Brandon Dahms, owner of Innovative Manufacturing & Engineering (IME) in Des Moines, Iowa. Brandon's story captures what this summit is all about—growth, resilience, and transformation. After starting his career with plans to work in sports marketing, he took an unexpected turn into manufacturing and never looked back. Today, his 10,000-square-foot, lights-out machining operation runs nearly 24/7, serving as proof that automation, strategy, and strong leadership can turn even the smallest shop into a powerhouse. In this episode, we talk with Brandon about how the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses program helped him refine his growth strategy, strengthen his company culture, and position IME for long-term success. We dive into what it's like to go through a program that feels like an "MBA for real-world business owners" and how it shaped his ability to pivot from a traditional job shop to a high-volume, automated manufacturer. We also explore the advocacy side of the program—how small business owners like Brandon are meeting directly with congressional leaders to influence policy on issues that affect manufacturers every day: workforce development, healthcare costs, and economic uncertainty. From his experience in the classroom to his conversations on Capitol Hill, Brandon shows how one voice can help represent the entire metalworking nation. If you've ever wondered how programs like this can truly impact your business—and why stepping outside your bubble might be the key to future growth—this conversation is one you don't want to miss.
