Ideas don't grow on their own. Something has to amplify them. Universities amplify what they teach, consultants amplify what they recommend, and money amplifies the ideas it chooses to back. If we want to understand how work changes at scale, we have to look at how capital shapes which ideas take root. Virginie Raphaël is redesigning that amplifier. In this episode, Dart and Virginie discuss how venture capital amplifies ideas, how trust networks shape who gets funded, and why rethinking the incentives behind early-stage investing may be key to building a more equitable future of work.Virginie Raphaël is the Founder and Managing Partner of FullCircle, a perpetual pre-seed venture fund. She invests in founders building a more equitable, sustainable, and prosperous workforce.In this episode, Dart and Virginie discuss:- How money amplifies ideas and shapes systems at scale- Why traditional venture funds push short-term returns- How a perpetual fund changes founder–investor alignment- Why trust networks shape who gets funded- The danger of capital crowding into the same ideas- What pre-seed investing really means for founder risk- Why geography still matters in early-stage innovation- How AI hype is distorting investment decisions- What she looks for in founders who want to change work- Why impact and market returns don't have to conflict- And other topics…Virginie Raphaël is the Founder and Managing Partner of FullCircle, a perpetual pre-seed fund focused on building a more equitable and sustainable workforce. Before founding the firm, she was a Managing Director at Tusk Ventures and previously worked in banking at Lehman Brothers and Barclays.

Send us a textIn this episode, we see that friendship and loathing truly are two sides of the same coin. While everything is collapsing for Eric and Yasmin personally, professionally, and morally, Harper is finally ascending into her full power --- at both of their expense.We finally learn what really happened to Yasmin's dad, drawing uncomfortable parallels to chilling real-world headlines. And speaking of real-world headlines, Pierpoint's descent evokes the ghosts of Lehman Brothers and the 2008 global financial crisis. Harper's emergence as the architect of a potentially catastrophic short of the bank's stock shatters the fragile friendship between her and Yasmin. And Eric's failures to be a proper father figure to the "women in his life" help force the central question of the episode: are these characters in fact becoming the worst things they fear about themselves? Or were these monsters always lurking beneath the surface, waiting for their moment to strike?It isn't all steak and martinis...get caught up on your favorite show with us before Season 4 drops in January!Learn more about 9fin HERE Shop our Self Paced Courses: Investment Banking & Private Equity Fundamentals HEREFixed Income Sales & Trading HERE Wealthfront.com/wss.

El hombre que perdió 400.000 millones de dólares en una semana y los recuperó en 48 horas En septiembre de 2008, un ejecutivo de Lehman Brothers salió de su oficina en el número 745 de la Séptima Avenida de Nueva York por última vez. Llevaba una caja de cartón con sus pertenencias. Una foto familiar, una taza con el logo de la empresa, un diploma enmarcado de Wharton. Detrás de él, un banco de 158 años de historia se desvanecía en la nada. Lo que ese ejecutivo no sabía —lo que nadie podía saber entonces— es que diecisiete años después, en diciembre de 2025, otro gigante tecnológico perdería exactamente la misma cantidad de capitalización bursátil. Cuatrocientos mil millones de dólares evaporados en cuestión de días. La diferencia es que esta vez la historia no termina con una caja de cartón. Termina con TikTok. Hay una vieja máxima en Wall Street que dice que los mercados pueden permanecer irracionales más tiempo del que tú puedes permanecer solvente. Es una frase que se atribuye a Keynes, aunque probablemente la dijo otro, porque en finanzas las mejores citas siempre se atribuyen a quien no las pronunció. Pero hay otra verdad menos citada y más incómoda: los mercados también pueden cambiar de opinión más rápido de lo que tú puedes cambiar de posición. Y cuando lo hacen, no avisan. No mandan un correo electrónico. No publican un comunicado de prensa. Simplemente ocurre. Esta semana hemos sido testigos de algo que desafía toda lógica aparente. Una empresa que parecía destinada a protagonizar el próximo caso de estudio sobre hybris corporativa se convirtió, en menos de dos días, en la historia de redención del trimestre. Un fabricante de chips de memoria —posiblemente el negocio menos glamuroso de toda la cadena tecnológica— publicó unos resultados que Morgan Stanley calificó como los segundos más impresionantes en la historia de los semiconductores estadounidenses. Y una compañía de coches eléctricos alcanzó máximos históricos el mismo día que un juez dictaminó que su marketing era fraudulento. Si intentaras escribir esto como ficción, tu editor te lo devolvería por inverosímil. Pero quizás lo más fascinante de esta semana no fueron los titulares que todos vieron, sino las conexiones que casi nadie percibió. Porque resulta que hay un hilo invisible que conecta a un fabricante de aspiradoras robóticas que se declaró en bancarrota, con constructores de viviendas que están bajando precios desesperadamente, con una marca deportiva que lleva un año tropezando con la misma piedra. Ese hilo tiene un nombre, aunque todavía no lo hemos pronunciado. Y cuando lo entiendas —cuando veas cómo todas estas piezas aparentemente inconexas encajan en un patrón coherente—, probablemente cambies tu forma de pensar sobre lo que está ocurriendo realmente en los mercados. Charlie Munger solía decir que el mundo no está dividido en personas inteligentes y personas estúpidas. Está dividido en personas que entienden los incentivos y personas que no. Esta semana, los incentivos hablaron muy alto. Tan alto que algunos los escucharon y otros los confundieron con ruido de fondo. La pregunta es: ¿en qué grupo estás tú? Todo esto y mucho más en el nuevo episodio de Actualidad Semanal +D.

In this week's episode, Nate reflects on four years(!) of the podcast by answering listener-submitted questions, which cover a broad range of topics related to The Great Simplification. He invites subscribers to investigate how they navigate a complex and ever-changing world, while avoiding overly prescriptive solutions that brush aside personal agency and the inherent uncertainty that exists in our world. Whether it's outlining his own evolving theory of change or emphasizing the importance of self-care and psychological grounding, Nate speaks to the epistemological resilience that we will increasingly need to cultivate in the face of a changing world. He shares deeper questions that have emerged through decades of research and conversations, his own hopes and concerns for the future, and even an updated vision for this podcast going into the new year – all to help synthesize his experience creating this media space as a nexus for the vast, interdisciplinary, and essential knowledge that demystifies the human predicament. Why do small points of disagreement so often overshadow what we have in common? How do we stay grounded and connected to community as disagreement and fear grow louder? And, what does meaningful change look like when traditional levers like policy, technology, and growth seem insufficient?   About Nate Hagens: Dr. Nate Hagens is the Executive Director of The Institute for the Study of Energy & Our Future (ISEOF), an organization focused on educating and preparing society for the coming cultural transition. Formerly in the finance industry at Lehman Brothers and Salomon Brothers, in 2003 Nate shifted his focus to the interrelationships between energy, ecology, economics & human behavior and their subsequent implications for human futures.  He has co-authored the books Reality Blind - Integrating the Systems Science Underpinning Our Collective Futures - Vol 1 and The Bottlenecks of the 21st Century and has appeared on PBS, BBC, ABC and NPR, and lectures around the world. Nate holds a Master's Degree in Finance with Honors from the University of Chicago and a Ph.D. in Natural Resources from the University of Vermont. He lives on a small farm in Wisconsin with his pack of rescue dogs, as well as horses, chickens, and ducks.

“Be authentic.” “Own your story.” “Sharpen your edges.”We say these things at Havener Capital all the time (and Stacy says them a lot). But here's the real question: do they actually move the needle?Mike Denklau, founder of Dorset Agriculture, is here to tell you they do. Today, he's giving us a behind-the-scenes look at what happens when you stop code-switching… and start building from your real story.Before launching Dorset, Mike was part of Harvard's endowment, helping manage a $4B+ agriculture and timber portfolio. Long before that, he was an Iowa farm kid. The journey from flannel in the fields to fund meetings in Boston is full of lessons for any founder navigating identity, fundraising, and first-time firm-building.Here's what you'll hear in this episode:How a kid from Iowa ended up managing billions at Harvard and how that full-circle moment sparked Dorset's launchThe overlooked opportunity in ag investing most firms ignore (and where meaningful, steady alpha may actually be hiding)How Mike landed his first investor without a pitch and without trading his comfy flannel in for a stiff suit to fit in Why boutique founders need to stop hiding behind polish and let LPs see the messy middle (because that's where conviction is built)What early-stage fundraising actually feels like and how to keep going when the uncertainty feels personal and loudThis isn't just a story about agriculture. It's a case study in what happens when you own your different, build what the market didn't even know it needed, and let your backstory do what it does best: open doors that fitting in never could. More about Mike Denklau: Mike was born into a third-generation farming family and raised on a farm in Iowa. He has 14+ years of investment and finance experience and was involved with $8B+ of transactions.Prior to Dorset, Mike was an agriculture investor at Solum Partners and Harvard Management Company.

Udo Schloemer setzt auf KI, Gründergeist und Geschwindigkeit, um ein Ziel zu erreichen: Er will Deutschland zur Tech-Supermacht machen. Seine Zuversicht ist groß, denn Schloemer sieht in der neuen Generation "hungrige Leute, die mit der Matratze ins Büro ziehen". Allerdings bleiben ihm zufolge nur drei Jahre Zeit.Der Gründer der Factory Berlin hat in den 90er-Jahren mit Immobilien sein Geld gemacht, bei Lehman Brothers erlebt, wie schnell ein Milliardenimperium zusammenbricht und Berlin zu einer wichtigen Startup-Hauptstadt Europas aufgebaut. Als Nächstes möchte er Deutschland technologisch wieder nach vorn bringen. Der Schlüssel liegt ihm zufolge in der Kombination aus mutigen Gründerinnen und Gründern, guten Tech-Ideen, kreativer KI und deutscher Ingenieurskunst. "Was wir vorhaben, ist wahnsinnig", sagt er im Podcast. "Aber was haben wir denn zu verlieren?"In den nächsten zwei Jahren möchte Schloemer mit der Factory Berlin 800 Unternehmen im Bereich Künstliche Intelligenz gründen. Etablierte Wirtschaftsnamen aus dem Mittelstand können dabei eine wichtige Rolle spielen, müssen sie aber nicht: "Ein Startup braucht keine Pläne. Der Plan passt auf einen Bierdeckel", sagt er. Schloemer warnt vor einer zu frühen Einflussnahme anderer Firmen. "Eine Zusammenarbeit, bei der der Mittelstand vorgibt, was er erwartet, tötet jede Innovation, bevor sie überhaupt geboren wird."Entscheidend für den Erfolg eines neuen Unternehmens sind Schloemer zufolge eine Idee und eine Vision. Und jede Menge harte Arbeit. Bei jungen Menschen stellt der Investor einen Wandel fest. Sie ziehen durch, anstatt über Work-Life-Balance zu diskutieren: "Wenn ich mit denen über KI spreche, ziehen die mit der Matratze ins Büro."Dabei redet sich Schloemer in Rage. Mit Charme, klarer Kante und einer Prise Selbstironie: "Ich bin 55 - und wenn ich sehe, wie meine Tochter eine Präsentation baut, mache ich das nur noch, wenn sie nicht zuguckt."Gleichzeitig ist seine Botschaft unmissverständlich: Wer jetzt nicht mutig ist, wird technologisch abgehängt. "Wenn wir in drei Jahren nicht liefern, brauchen wir es gar nicht mehr zu probieren."Sie haben Fragen für Frauke Holzmeier und Andreas Laukat?

Leon Brujis, Partner and Co-Head of U.S. at 65 Equity Partners Leon Brujis shares how his firm is redefining private equity through non-control investments in founder-led businesses. In this conversation, Leon breaks down why the best companies are never for sale, how immigrant adaptability translates to investing success, and why boring, disciplined deal-making consistently outperforms flashy transactions. He also walks through his framework for negotiating term sheets and building relationships that span years before cutting checks north of $200 million. Things You'll Learn Why non-control "partnership capital" allows PE firms to capture the alpha of founder-led companies that outperform by 3x How to structure competitive fundraising processes that balance relationship-building with deal tension—without talking to 60 firms The five-point framework for negotiating term sheets: value, structure, governance, strategy alignment, and exit planning ____________________ This episode is brought to you by S&P Global. Today's episode of M&A Science is brought to you by S&P Global Market Intelligence. If you're in corp dev or PE, you know the pain — good private company data is hard to come by. Everyone's still chasing clean, reliable, up-to-date data. I started out using CapIQ Pro for public comps, but didn't realize until recently how deep their private company coverage has gotten. Over 58 million private companies, global reach, and actually usable for real deal work.  This isn't surface-level. You get real metrics — ownership, financials, funding rounds, even asset-level insights. So if you're still toggling between a dozen tools trying to piece together the picture, maybe it's time to stop guessing and start sourcing better.  Learn More Here: https://www.spglobal.com/market-intelligence/en/solutions/products/private-company-data?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=MAScienceH225  __________________ Buyer-Led M&A™: The Framework is Now Available Traditional M&A is broken.

Nine Mistakes Wealthy People Make Episode 359 – A few weeks ago we took an in-depth look at some of the things wealthy people understand that the rest of us tend to miss. Today, we'll take a look at the opposite: some financial mistakes that even wealthy people tend to make, and how we can help avoid them. More SML Planning Minute Podcast Episodes Transcript of Podcast Episode 359 Hello, this is Bill Rainaldi, with another edition of Security Mutual's SML Planning Minute. In today's episode: nine mistakes wealthy people make. A few weeks ago, we took an in-depth look at some of the things affluent people understand that the rest of us seem to miss. But even successful, well-educated people do some dumb things. Today, we'll cover the exact opposite of what we did before: some financial mistakes that even wealthy people tend to make. Here are nine of them: Putting too much money into a single investment. Diversification is one of the cardinal rules of investing, but many wealthy people tend to break it. And it's understandable why. So many of the ultra-rich became that way by starting, or investing in, just one or a handful of companies. Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are great examples of this. At some point, putting too much money into a single investment just creates unnecessary risk. Some employees at companies like Enron and Lehman Brothers put all their retirement savings in their company stock. It worked spectacularly—for a while—but it eventually became almost worthless in a very short time. [1] Very few investors enjoy the measure of success that Musk and Bezos experienced. They can be underinsured. It doesn't really matter how wealthy you are, people make mistakes with their insurance across the board. If you don't have enough homeowner's insurance, it could end up costing you millions if you live in a valuable home.[2] And if you're concerned about your children and grandchildren, life insurance can be an important and efficient way to transfer your wealth to future generations. They have too much personal real estate. Some wealthy people tend to have too many expensive homes in remote places that they rarely visit. And they can be a significant cash drain. If you don't use the place frequently, it may not be worth holding onto it. If you want to vacation in some unusual places, sometimes it may be better to rent.[3] Or if you insist on keeping the place, maybe you should consider renting it out when you're not using it. Trying to keep up with their peers. It's human nature, and the wealthy aren't exempt from keeping up with the Joneses. When we see our friends living it up, it tends to make us want to do the same. And if we're not careful, it could mean significantly less savings and too much debt.[4] Lack of liquidity. Private equity is all the rage these days, but there's a downside. Some people tend to be too optimistic when they buy into illiquid assets. The fact is that for a variety of reasons, most of them don't work out, even if it seems like a great idea. And if it doesn't work out, it can be a drag on your finances for years.[5] Fear of missing out, or “FOMO.” It seems that no one is exempt from this. Believe it or not, a recent study suggested that the wealthy are actually among the worst offenders.[6] Rich people may think they know better than the average investor. But they can be just as susceptible to media hype and/or greed. It pays to keep a long-term perspective and remember the fundamentals. Neglecting estate planning. What do Howard Hughes, Prince, Sonny Bono and Pablo Picasso have in common? They all died with a lot of money but without a will.[7] It seems that the wealthy should all have done at least some rudimentary estate planning. But that's not always the case.Whether you have a lot of money or not, you probably want to make sure it goes to the people or charitable organizations you care the most about. But if you don't have an estate plan, you give up your right to decide these things. And it's not just a will. It can be a succession plan for your business or an advance medical directive.[8] Lifestyle creep. There is a tendency among the wealthy: the more you make, the more you end up spending on things like travel, fancy meals and transportation. There are so many examples of people—such as Michael Jackson or Lindsay Lohan—who overdid it and paid the price later on. The truth is that it's easy to increase your lifestyle, but once you're there, it's much harder to bring it back down. If you're not careful, spending habits can become unsustainable for just about anybody.[9] Not understanding that wealth is about more than money. Newsflash: some of the richest people in the world are terribly unhappy. In the words of author Riley Clendenin, “True financial success isn't just about accumulating wealth—it's about using money as a tool to build a meaningful, balanced life. The smartest investors understand that their financial portfolio is only one part of their overall wealth, and they invest just as much in their health, personal growth, and happiness as they do in their bank accounts.”[10] The ultra-wealthy certainly have the benefit of a bigger cushion when they make a financial error. And they all make mistakes, some big, some little. But the rest of us can also learn something from the errors that wealthy people tend to make, and how to avoid them.

Episode Description: In September 2008, Lehman Brothers—who survived the Civil War, two World Wars, and the Great Depression—collapsed in one of the largest bankruptcies in American history. They had Nobel laureates on staff, sophisticated models, and decades of market data. Yet they missed the critical difference between managing risk and navigating uncertainty.

Get free marketing videos from Don every week at WeeklySoundbite.com   Leadership success often hinges on a trait many people misunderstand: self-awareness. In today's fast-paced world, leaders are surrounded by noise: social media flattery, AI-generated validation, and constant feedback loops that create more confusion than clarity. And while confidence is essential, when it crosses into narcissism, the fallout can be devastating. Think Enron, Lehman Brothers, or any organization led by someone blind to their own flaws. Narcissistic leaders may get results, but the cost is often burnout, chaos, and shattered trust. So how do you know if you're headed down that path? And what does true, effective leadership actually look like in a world addicted to ego boosting?   This week, Don and Kyle sit down with leadership advisor and former White House speechwriter Les Corba to unpack the nuances between healthy confidence and dangerous self-absorption. You'll learn how to spot narcissistic messaging, build trust, foster honest feedback, and create a culture of self-awareness, starting with yourself.

Pilar Gomez-Bravo is Co-Chief Investment Officer fixed income and portfolio manager at MFS Investment Management. She was previously a managing director at Neuberger Berman, and prior to that, spent a significant amount of her career at Lehman Brothers.Our conversation starts with Pilar's childhood which saw her move around a lot with her family - this forced an adaptability and resilience that served her well when her career in finance took many unexpected turns. Market and segment volatility played a notable supporting role in Pilar's early career, most particularly with a massive setback when Lehman Brothers collapsed and again when she joined a start-up hedge fund for a short period of time. MFS represented another change of direction, but ended up as a very fertile one, as she steadily progressed through the ranks there until ultimately co-leading the fixed income function in her current role. We discuss what makes an employer a positive influence, and how a nurturing work setting can bring out the best in teams.Finally we reflect on what it is to have a full life, and the importance of staying diversified in life as well as in work.Series 5 of 2025 is kindly sponsored by Diamond Hill.

Palantir kwam met 'buitenaards' goede kwartaalcijfers. Omzet en winst gingen enorm omhoog, maar toch ging het aandeel hard naar beneden. Had dat te maken met het feit dat het aandeel wel erg duur was geworden of het feit dat een beroemde shortseller zich meldt?Deze aflevering hebben we het over Michael Burry. De man waar de legendarische film Big Short op is gebaseerd. De man die de financiële crisis aan zag komen. Die man gaat nu short op Palantir (en op Nvidia). Tot woede van de baas van Palantir, die zit te schuimbekken op analisten én shortsellers. Ook hebben we het over iets bijzonders. Philips dat met goed nieuws komt! Het aandeel Philips is zelfs dé grote winnaar op de AEX. We kijken waar aandeelhouders zo blij van worden.Kijken we ook naar een concurrent van Shell, naar BP. Dat maakte een draai. Minder inzetten op duurzame energie en meer op het ouderwetse olie en gas. En dat zorgt voor kwartaalcijfers die boven de verwachting uitkomen. De cijfers van Uber en Spotify hoor je ook, net als die van Nintendo. En we moeten het over de megabonus van Elon Musk hebben. Je weet wel, die 1000 miljard dollar die hij bij Tesla kan krijgen. Die lijkt nu steeds meer uit beeld...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of The Distribution, host Brandon Sedloff sits down with Aasif Bade, founder and CEO of Ambrose, to explore how he built one of the country's leading modern industrial real estate platforms from the ground up. Aasif shares his journey from watching his father work in a warehouse on the west side of Indianapolis to founding Ambrose in 2008—just weeks after the collapse of Lehman Brothers. He explains how that moment of uncertainty became an opportunity to reimagine how industrial real estate could be developed and operated with an entrepreneurial, client-first mindset. They discuss: • The childhood experience that sparked Aasif's lifelong passion for warehouses and real estate • Lessons learned from Duke Realty and how they shaped Ambrose's “boots on the ground” approach • Launching Ambrose during the Great Financial Crisis and the conviction behind taking that risk • The evolution from deal-by-deal partnerships to raising a $400 million institutional fund • How modern industrial design and advanced automation are redefining America's supply chain • The growing overlap between industrial and data center development opportunities • Why power access and hands-on market knowledge create a competitive edge LInks: Ambrose - https://ambrosepg.com/ Aasif on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/aasif-bade-a3b1851a4/ Brandon on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/bsedloff/ Juniper Square - https://www.junipersquare.com/ Topics: (00:00:00) - Intro (00:02:42) - Aasif's early interest in warehousing (00:12:25) - Starting Ambrose during economic turmoil (00:18:28) - The growth and scale of Ambrose (00:23:54) - Challenges in raising an institutional fund (00:25:45) - Building relationships with institutional investors (00:28:34) - Boots on the ground approach (00:29:39) - Understanding market nuances (00:33:27) - Organizational structure and outsourcing (00:38:12) - Impact of onshoring and reshoring (00:42:20) - Supply and demand dynamics in industrial real estate (00:47:18) - Inside a modern industrial warehouse (00:49:43) - Power constraints in modern warehouses (00:51:21) - Conclusion and final thoughts

Parto dalla manovra spiegata semplice che più semplice non si può. Spoiler, lo spread apprezza. Vado poi su Cina e Usa spiegando gli ultimi accadimenti e perché l'incontro tra i due leader è così importante. Finisco con lo spiegare perché i fallimenti negli Usa oggi sono diversi da quelli che abbiamo visto nel pre Lehman Brothers. Vi aspetto, come sempre. 

When workout specialist Norman Radow sat across from a developer who'd just lost a half-billion-dollar condo project in LA and asked what he'd change, the developer pounded the table, "I wouldn't change a thing. I did everything right!"   That's when Norman knew exactly why he was there.   Norman Radow is CEO of The RADCO Companies, an Atlanta-based opportunistic real estate firm that has acquired, invested in, and operated over 30,000 multifamily units across 15 markets and completed more than 100 deals totaling $3.3 billion over the past decade.   But his story begins earlier – as Lehman Brothers' off-balance-sheet workout specialist, where he earned the title "workout king" from The New York Times in 2009 after unwinding some of the most complex distressed assets in modern real estate history.   In this conversation, Norman shares battle-tested wisdom from three decades of buying buildings nobody else wanted – from the savings and loan crisis through the GFC to today's market paralysis.   Five questions answered: Why did Norman wait three years to get back into the distress game – and what finally triggered his return? What do ALL failed condo projects he studied have in common? (Hint: it's not what you think.) Why are banks giving free extensions to sponsors with "unclean hands" instead of bringing in fresh operators? Where is institutional capital flowing right now – and why non-institutional investors shouldn't compete there. What's the real story behind "extend and pretend" 2.0? If you're trying to make sense of today's multifamily market – the disconnect between debt and equity, why distressed deals aren't trading, and where smart money should position for the next 24-36 months – this delivers hard-earned pattern recognition from someone who's seen this movie before.   *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.   With insights from economists, academics, and seasoned professionals, this show helps investors respond to market uncertainty with clarity, discipline, and a focus on downside protection.    Subscribe to my free newsletter for timely updates, insights, and tools to help you navigate today's volatile real estate landscape.

Gregg also talks about his early pivot from finance at Lehman Brothers to journalism and what he loves about the job. We also discuss Jimmy Breslin, Jim Cramer, hot pastrami, the best PR pitches, and of course, a whole lot more.

Neste episódio bônus de Stock Pickers, Lucas Collazo explica a história da crise de 2008. Foi o ano em que o Lehman Brothers quebrou, a bolha imobiliária estourou e o mundo esteve a horas de um colapso financeiro total. Entre personagens como Michael Burry, Steve Eisman e Greg Lippmann, que apostaram contra o mercado e foram retratados no filme A Grande Aposta, e a queda dos gigantes de Wall Street, o episódio mostra como uma crise imobiliária quase destruiu o sistema global.Entre resgates bilionários, decisões polêmicas do Fed e do governo americano e a perda de confiança que paralisou mercados e empregos, a crise deixou cicatrizes profundas e lições que continuam atuais. Um episódio especial para entender o que realmente aconteceu em 2008, o impacto que ainda ecoa no mercado financeiro e a pergunta que não quer calar: qual (e quando) será a próxima bolha? 

How much of the mania is inherent to crypto and how much is just SBF? Cryptomania: Hype, Hope, and the Fall of FTX's Billion-Dollar Fintech Empire By: Andrew R. Chow Published: 2024 416 Pages Briefly, what is this book about? The 2020-2022 crypto boom. Three groups stand out. The scammers, as represented by Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF). The idealists, as represented by Vitalik Buterin and the victims as represented by African NFT artist Owo Anieti.  What's the author's angle? Chow definitely thinks that there was a crypto bubble that popped in 2022 with the implosion of FTX. Whether he thinks crypto is a bubble in its entirety is less clear. He's definitely not a crypto booster. Who should read this book? I mostly read it to partake in some schadenfreude at SBF's expense. It delivered on that. If you have similar desires I would recommend it, but it also did a great job of outlining the craziness of that era. What Black Swans does it reveal? The collapse of FTX played out over a much shorter time period than the collapse of, say, Enron or Lehman Brothers. If crypto gets more entrenched into the world's financial system while maintaining this quality of rapid volatility, that would be bad.  Specific thoughts: Owo vs. SBF

Oh look, an exploding mountain. Because that seems reasonable. Volcanoes sound like something imagined, like dragons or teleportation or dinosaurs*. “So let me get this straight,” I imagine some puzzled Appalachian miner, circa 1852, responding to the fellow across the fire as he tells of his adventures in the Oregon Territory, “you expect me to believe that out thataways they got themselves mountains that just blow their roofs off whenever they feel like it, and shoot off fire and rocks and gas for 50 mile or more, and no one never knows when it's a'comin'? You must think I'm dumber'n that there tree stump.”Turns out volcanoes are real. How humanity survived past day one I have no idea. But here we are, skiing on volcanoes instead of tossing our virgins from the rim as a way of asking the nice mountain to please not explode (seriously how did anyone make it out of the past alive?).And one of the volcanoes we can ski on is Mount Hood. This actually seems more unbelievable to me than the concept of a vengeful nuclear mountain. PNW Nature Bros shield every blade of grass like they're guarding Fort Knox. When, in 2014, federal scientists proposed installing four monitoring stations on Hood, which the U.S. Geological Survey ranks as the sixth-highest threat to erupt out of America's 161 active volcanoes, these morons stalled the process for six years. “I think it is so important to have places like that where we can just step back, out of respect and humility, and appreciate nature for what it is,” a Wilderness Watch official told The New York Times. Personally I think it's so important to install basic monitoring infrastructure so that thousands of people are not incinerated in a predictable volcanic eruption. While “Japan, Iceland and Chile smother their high-threat volcanoes in scientific instruments,” The Times wrote, American Granola Bros say things like, “This is more proof that the Forest Service has abandoned any pretense of administering wilderness as per the letter or spirit of the Wilderness Act.” And Hood and the nation's other volcanoes cackle madly. “These idiots are dumber than the human-sacrifice people,” they say just before belching up an ash cloud that could take down a 747. When officials finally installed these instrument clusters on Hood in 2020, they occupied three boxes that look to be approximately the size of a convenience-store ice freezer, which feels like an acceptable trade-off to mass death and airplanes falling out of the sky.I know that as an outdoor writer I'm supposed to be all pissed off if anyone anywhere suggests any use of even a centimeter of undeveloped land other than giving it back to the deer in a treaty printed on recycled Styrofoam and signed with human blood to symbolize the life we've looted from nature by commandeering 108 square feet to potentially protect millions of lives from volcanic eruption, but this sort of trivial protectionism and willful denial that humans ought to have rights too is the kind of brainless uncompromising overreach that I fear will one day lead to a massive over-correction at the other extreme, in which a federal government exhausted with never being able to do anything strips away or massively dilutes land protections that allow anyone to do anything they can afford. And that's when we get Monster Pete's Arctic Dune Buggies setting up a casino/coal mine/rhinoceros-hunting ranch on the Eliot Glacier and it's like thanks Bros I hope that was worth it to stall the placement of gardenshed-sized public safety infrastructure for six years.Anyway, given the trouble U.S. officials have with installing necessary things on Mount Hood, it's incredible how many unnecessary ones our ancestors were able to build. But in 1927 the good old boys hacked their way into the wilderness and said, “by gum what a spot for snoskiing” and built a bunch of ski areas. And today 31 lifts serve four Mt. Hood ski areas covering a combined 4,845 acres:Which I'm just like, do these Wilderness Watch people not know about this? Perhaps if this and similar groups truly cared about the environmental integrity of Mount Hood they would invest their time, energy, and attention into a long-term regional infrastructure plan that identified parcels for concentrated mixed-use development and non-personal-car-based transit options to mitigate the impact of thousands of skiers traveling up the mountain daily from Portland, rather than in delaying the installation of basic monitoring equipment that notifies humanity of a civilization-shattering volcanic eruption before it happens. But then again I am probably not considering how this would impact the integrity of squirrel poop decomposition below 6,000 feet and the concomitant impacts on pinestand soil erosion which of course would basically end life as we know it on planet Earth.OK this went sideways let me try to salvage it.*Whoops I know dinosaurs were real; I meant to write “the moon landing.” How embarrassing.What we talked aboutA strong 2024-25; recruiting employees in mountains with little nearby housing; why Meadows doesn't compete with Timberline for summer skiing; bye-bye Blue double, Meadows' last standing opening-year chairlift; what it takes to keep an old Riblet operating; the reliability of old versus new chairlifts; Blue's slow-motion demolition and which relics might remain long term; the logic of getting a free anytime buddy lift ticket with your season pass; thoughts on ski area software providers that take a percentage of all sales; why Meadows and Cooper Spur have no pass reciprocity; the ongoing Cooper Spur land exchange; the value of Cooper Spur and Summit on a volcano with three large ski areas; why Meadows hasn't backed away from reciprocal agreements; why Meadows chose Indy over Epic, Ikon, or Mountain Collective; becoming a ski kid when you're not from a ski family; landing at Mountain Creek, New Jersey after a Colorado ski career; how Moonlight Basin started as an independent ski area and eventually became part of Big Sky; the tension underlying Telluride; how the Drake Family, who has managed the ski area since inception, makes decisions; a board that reinvests 100 percent of earnings back into the mountain; why we need large independents in a consolidating world; being independent is “our badge of honor”; whether ownership wants to remain independent long term; potential next lift upgrades; a potential all-new lift line and small expansion; thoughts on a better Heather lift; wild Hood weather and the upper limits of lift service; considering surface lifts on the upper mountain; the challenges of running Cascade Express; the future of the Daisy and Easy Rider doubles; more potential future expansion; and whether we could ever see a ski connection with Timberline Lodge.Why now was a good time for this interviewIt's kind of dumb that 210 episodes into this podcast I've only recorded one Oregon ep: Timberline Lodge President Jeff Kohnstamm, more than three years ago. While Oregon only has 11 active ski areas, and the state ranks 11th-ish in skier visits, it's an important ski state. PNW skiers treat skiing like the Northeast treats baseball or the Midwest treats football or D.C. treats politics: rabid beyond reason. That explains the eight Idaho pods and half dozen each in Washington and B.C. These episodes hit like a hash stand at a Dead show. So why so few Oregon eps?Eh, no reason in particular. There isn't a ski area in North America that I don't want to feature on the podcast, but I can't just order them online like a pizza. Relationships, more than anything, drive the podcast, and The Storm's schedule is primarily opportunity driven. I invite folks on as I meet them or when they do something cool. And sometimes we can connect right away and sometimes it takes months or even years, even if they want to do it. Sometimes we're waiting on contracts or approvals so we can discuss some big project in depth. It can take time to build trust, or to convince a non-podcast person that they have a great story to tell.So we finally get to Meadows. Not to be It-Must-Be-Nice Bro about benefits that arise from clear deliberate life choices, but It must be nice to live in the PNW, where every city sits within 90 minutes of a ripping, open-until-Memorial-Day skyscraper that gets carpet bombed with 400 annual inches but receives between one and four out-of-state visitors per winter. Yeah the ski areas are busy anyway because they don't have enough of them, but busy with Subaru-driving Granola Bros is different than busy with Subaru-driving Granola Bros + Texas Bro whose cowboy boots aren't clicking in right + Florida Bro who bought a Trans Am for his boa constrictor + Midwest Bro rocking Olin 210s he found in Gramp's garage + Hella Rad Cali Bro + New Yorker Bro asking what time they groom Corbet's + Aussie Bro touring the Rockies on a seven-week long weekend + Euro Bro rocking 65 cm underfoot on a two-foot powder day. I have no issue with tourists mind you because I am one but there is something amazing about a ski area that is gigantic and snowy and covered in modern infrastructure while simultaneously being unknown outside of its area code.Yes this is hyperbole. But while everyone in Portland knows that Meadows has the best parking lot views in America and a statistical profile that matches up with Beaver Creek and as many detachable chairlifts as Snowbasin or Snowbird and more snow than Steamboat or Jackson or Palisades or Pow Mow, most of the rest of the world doesn't, and I think they should.Why you should ski Mt. Hood Meadows and Cooper SpurIt's interesting that the 4,845 combined skiable acres of Hood's four ski areas are just a touch larger than the 4,323 acres at Mt. Bachelor, which as far as I know has operated as a single interconnected facility since its 1958 founding. Both are volcanoes whose ski areas operate on U.S. Forest Service land a commutable distance from demographically similar markets, providing a case study in distributed versus centralized management.Bachelor in many ways delivers a better experience. Bachelor's snow is almost always drier and better, an outlier in the kingdom of Cascade Concrete. Skiers can move contiguously across its full acreage, an impossible mission on Balkanized Hood. The mountain runs an efficient, mostly modern 15 lifts to Hood's wild 31, which includes a dozen detachables but also a half dozen vintage Riblet doubles with no safety bars. Bachelor's lifts scale the summit, rather than stopping thousands of feet short as they do on Hood. While neither are Colorado-grade destination ski areas, metro Portland is stuffed with 25 times more people than Bend, and Hood ski areas have an everbusy feel that skiers can often outrun at Bachelor. Bachelor is closer to its mothership – just 26 minutes from Bend to Portland's hour-to-two-hour commutes up to the ski areas. And Bachelor, accessible on all versions of the Ikon Pass and not hamstrung by the confusing counter-branding of multiple ski areas with similar names occupying the same mountain, presents a more clearcut target for the mainstream skier.But Mount Hood's quirky scatterplot ski centers reward skiers in other ways. Four distinct ski areas means four distinct ski cultures, each with its own pace, purpose, customs, traditions, and orientation to the outside world. Timberline Lodge is a funky mix of summertime Bro parks, Government Camp greens, St. Bernards, and its upscale landmark namesake hotel. Cooper Spur is tucked-away, low-key, low-vert family resort skiing. Meadows sprawls, big and steep, with Hood's most interesting terrain. And low-altitude, closest-to-the-city Skibowl is night-lit slowpoke with a vintage all-Riblet lift fleet. Your Epic and Ikon passes are no good here, though Indy gets you Meadows and Cooper Spur. Walk-up lift tickets (still the only way to buy them at Skibowl), are more tier-varied and affordable than those at Bachelor, which can exceed $200 on peak days (though Bachelor heavily discounts access to its beginner lifts, with free access to select novice areas). Bachelor's $1,299 season pass is 30 percent more expensive than Meadows'.This dynamic, of course, showcases single-entity efficiency and market capture versus the messy choice of competition. Yes Free Market Bro you are right sometimes. Hood's ski areas have more inherent motivators to fight on price, forge allegiances like the Timberline-Skibowl joint season pass, invest in risks like night and summer skiing, and run wonky low-tide lift ticket deals. Empowering this flexibility: all four Hood ski areas remain locally owned – Meadows and T-Line by their founding families. Bachelor, of course, is a fiefdom of Park City, Utah-based Powdr, which owns a half-dozen other ski areas across the West.I don't think that Hood is better than Bachelor or that Bachelor is better than Hood. They're different, and you should ski both. But however you dissect the niceties of these not-really-competing-but-close-enough-that-a-comarison-makes-sense ski centers, the on-the-ground reality adds up to this: Hood locals, in general, are a far more contented gang than Bachelor Bros. I don't have any way to quantify this, and Bachelor has its partisans. But I talk to skiers all over the country, all the time. Skiers will complain about anything, and online guttings of even the most beloved mountains exist. But talk to enough people and strong enough patterns emerge to understand that, in general, locals are happy with Mammoth and Alpine Meadows and Sierra-at-Tahoe and A-Basin and Copper and Bridger Bowl and Nub's Nob and Perfect North and Elk and Plattekill and Berkshire East and Smuggs and Loon and Saddleback and, mostly, the Hood ski areas. And locals are generally less happy with Camelback and Seven Springs and Park City and Sunrise and Shasta and Stratton and, lately, former locals' faves Sugarbush and Wildcat. And, as far as I can tell, Bachelor.Potential explanations for Hood happiness versus Bachelor blues abound, all of them partial, none completely satisfactory, all asterisked with the vagaries of skiing and skiers and weather and luck. But my sense is this: Meadows, Timberline, and Skibowl locals are generally content not because they have better skiing than everyplace else or because their ski areas are some grand bargain or because they're not crowded or because they have the best lift systems or terrain parks or grooming or snow conditions, but because Hood, in its haphazard and confounding-to-outsiders borders and layout, has forced its varied operators to hyper-adapt to niche needs in the local market while liberating them from the all-things-to-everyone imperative thrust on isolated operations like Bachelor. They have to decide what they're good at and be good at that all the time, because they have no other option. Hood operators can't be Vail-owned Paoli Peaks, turning in 25-day ski seasons and saying well it's Indiana what do you expect? They have to be independent Perfect North, striving always for triple-digit operating days and saying it's Indiana and we're doing this anyway because if we don't you'll stop coming and we'll all be broke.In this way Hood is a snapshot of old skiing, pre-consolidation, pre-national pass, pre-social media platforms that flung open global windows onto local mountains. Other than Timberline summer parks no one is asking these places to be anything other than very good local ski areas serving rabid local skiers. And they're doing a damn good job.Podcast NotesOn Meadows and Timberline Lodge opening and closing datesOne of the most baffling set of basic facts to get straight in American skiing is the number of ski areas on Mount Hood and the distinction between them. Part of the reason for this is the volcano's famous summer skiing, which takes place not at either of the eponymous ski areas – Mt. Hood Meadows or Mt. Hood Skibowl – but at the awkwardly named Timberline Lodge, which sounds more like a hipster cocktail lounge with a 19th-century fur-trapper aesthetic than the name of a ski resort (which is why no one actually calls it “Timberline Lodge”; I do so only to avoid confusion with the ski area in West Virginia, because people are constantly getting Appalachian ski areas mixed up with those in the Cascades). I couldn't find a comprehensive list of historic closing dates for Meadows and Timberline, but the basic distinction is this: Meadows tends to wrap winter sometime between late April and late May. Timberline goes into August and beyond when it can. Why doesn't Meadows push its season when it is right next door and probably could? We discuss in the pod.On Riblet clipsFun fact about defunct-as-a-company-even-though-a-couple-hundred-of-their-machines-are-still-spinning Riblet chairlifts: rather than clamping on like a vice grip, the end of each chair is woven into the rope via something called an “insert clip.” I wrote about this in my Wildcat pod last year:On Alpental Chair 2A small but vocal segment of Broseph McBros with nothing better to do always reflexively oppose the demolition of legacy fixed-grip lifts to make way for modern machines. Pack does a great job laying out why it's harder to maintain older chairlifts than many skiers may think. I wrote about this here:On Blue's breakover towers and unload rampWe also dropped photos of this into the video version of the pod:On the Cooper Spur land exchangeHere's a somewhat-dated and very biased-against-the-ski-area infographic summarizing the proposed land swap between Meadows and the U.S. Forest Service, from the Cooper Spur Wild & Free Coalition, an organization that “first came together in 2002 to fight Mt. Hood Meadows' plans to develop a sprawling destination resort on the slopes of Mt. Hood near Cooper Spur”:While I find the sanctimonious language in this timeline off-putting, I'm more sympathetic to Enviro Bro here than I was with the eruption-detection controversy discussed up top. Opposing small-footprint, high-impact catastrophe-monitoring equipment on an active volcano to save five bushes but potentially endanger millions of human lives is foolish. But checking sprawling wilderness development by identifying smaller parcels adjacent to already-disturbed lands as alternative sites for denser, hopefully walkable, hopefully mixed-use projects is exactly the sort of thing that every mountain community ought to prioritize.On the combination of Summit and Timberline LodgeThe small Summit Pass ski area in Government Camp operated as an independent entity from its 1927 founding until Timberline Lodge purchased the ski area in 2018. In 2021, the owners connected the two – at least in one direction. Skiers can move 4,540 vertical feet from the top of Timberline's Palmer chair to the base of Summit. While Palmer tends to open late in the season and Summit tends to close early, and while skiers will have to ride shuttles back up to the Timberline lifts until the resort builds a much anticipated gondola connecting the full height, this is technically America's largest lift-served vertical drop.On Meadows' reciprocalsMeadows only has three season pass reciprocal partners, but they're all aspirational spots that passholders would actually travel for: Baker, Schweitzer, and Whitefish. I ask Pack why he continues to offer these exchanges even as larger ski areas such as Brundage and Tamarack move away from them. One bit of context I neglected to include, however, is that neighboring Timberline Lodge and Mount Hood Skibowl not only offer a joint pass, but are longtime members of Powder Alliance, which is an incredible regional reciprocal pass that's free for passholders at any of these mountains:On Ski Broadmoor, ColoradoColorado Springs is less convenient to skiing than the name implies – skiers are driving a couple of hours, minimum, to access Monarch or the Summit County ski areas. So I was surprised, when I looked up Pack's original home mountain of Ski Broadmoor, to see that it sat on the city's outskirts:This was never a big ski area, with 600 vertical feet served by an “America The Beautiful Lift” that sounds as though it was named by Donald Trump:The “famous” Broadmoor Hotel built and operated the ski area, according to Colorado Ski History. They sold the hotel in 1986 to the city, which promptly sold it to Vail Associates (now Vail Resorts), in 1988. Vail closed the ski area in 1991 – the only mountain they ever surrendered on. I'll update all my charts and such to reflect this soon.On pre-high-speed KeystoneIt's kind of amazing that Keystone, which now spins seven high-speed chairlifts, didn't install its first detachable until 1990, nearly a decade after neighboring Breckenridge installed the world's first, in 1981. As with many resorts that have aggressively modernized, this means that Keystone once ran more chairlifts than it does today. When Pack started his ski career at the mountain in 1989, Keystone ran 10 frontside aerial lifts (8 doubles, 1 triple, 1 gondola) compared to just six today (2 doubles, 2 sixers, a high-speed quad, and a higher-capacity gondy).On Mountain CreekI've talked about the bananas-ness of Mountain Creek many times. I love this unhinged New Jersey bump in the same way I loved my crazy late uncle who would get wasted at the Bay City fireworks and yell at people driving Toyotas to “Buy American!” (This was the ‘80s in Michigan, dudes. I don't know what to tell you. The auto industry was falling apart and everybody was tripping, especially dudes who worked in – or, in my uncle's case, adjacent to (steel) – the auto industry.)On IntrawestOne of the reasons I did this insane timeline project was so that I would no longer have to sink 30 minutes into Google every time someone said the word “Intrawest.” The timeline was a pain in the ass, but worth it, because now whenever I think “wait exactly what did Intrawest own and when?” I can just say “oh yeah I already did that here you go”:On Moonlight Basin and merging with Big SkyIt's kind of weird how many now-united ski areas started out as separate operations: Beaver Creek and Arrowhead (merged 1997), Canyons and Park City (2014), Whistler and Blackcomb (1997), Alpine Meadows and Squaw Valley (connected via gondola in 2022), Carinthia and Mount Snow (1986), Sugarbush and Mount Ellen (connected via chairlift in 1995). Sometimes – Beaver Creek, Mount Snow – the terrain and culture mergers are seamless. Other times – Alpine and the Palisades side of what is now Palisades Tahoe – the connection feels like opening a store that sells four-wheelers and 74-piece high-end dinnerware sets. Like, these things don't go together, Man. But when Big Sky absorbed Moonlight Basin and Spanish Peaks in 2013, everyone immediately forgot that it was ever any different. This suggests that Big Sky's 2032 Yellowstone Club acquisition will be seamless.**Kidding, Brah. Maybe.On Lehman BrothersNearly two decades later, it's still astonishing how quickly Lehman Brothers, in business for 158 years, collapsed in 2008.On the “mutiny” at TellurideEvery now and then, a reader will ask the very reasonable question about why I never pay any attention to Telluride, one of America's great ski resorts, and one that Pack once led. Mostly it's because management is unstable, making long-term skier experience stories of the sort I mostly focus on hard to tell. And management is mostly unstable because the resort's owner is, by all accounts, willful and boorish and sort of unhinged. Blevins, in The Colorado Sun's “Outsider” newsletter earlier this week:A few months ago, locals in Telluride and Mountain Village began publicly blasting the resort's owner, a rare revolt by a community that has grown weary of the erratic Chuck Horning.For years, residents around the resort had quietly lamented the antics and decisions of the temperamental Horning, the 81-year-old California real estate investor who acquired Telluride Ski & Golf Resort in 2004. It's the only resort Horning has ever owned and over the last 21 years, he has fired several veteran ski area executives — including, earlier this year, his son, Chad.Now, unnamed locals have launched a website, publicly detailing the resort owner's messy management of the Telluride ski area and other businesses across the country.“For years, Chuck Horning has caused harm to us all, both individually and collectively,” reads the opening paragraph of ChuckChuck.ski — which originated when a Telluride councilman in March said that it was “time to chuck Chuck.” “The community deserves something better. For years, we've whispered about the stories, the incidents, the poor decisions we've witnessed. Those stories should no longer be kept secret from everyone that relies on our ski resort for our wellbeing.”The chuckchuck.ski site drags skeletons out of Horning's closet. There are a lot of skeletons in there. The website details a long history of lawsuits across the country accusing Horning and the Newport Federal Financial investment firm he founded in 1970 of fraud.It's a pretty amazing site.On Bogus BasinI was surprised that ostensibly for-profit Meadows regularly re-invests 100 percent of profits into the ski area. Such a model is more typical for explicitly nonprofit outfits such as Bogus Basin, Idaho. Longtime GM Brad Wilson outlined how that ski area functions a few years back:The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round. Join us.
