Casey Ebro is a veteran editor who has significantly contributed to the publishing world. She formerly served as an Executive Editor with the Business Group at McGraw Hill Professional. In this role, she was responsible for acquiring, editing, and publishing business books in various subjects such as leadership, workplace culture, entrepreneurship, and innovation. She has been responsible for bestsellers and notable titles, including “Madoff Talks” by Jim Campbell, which inspired a Netflix documentary series, and the Wall Street Journal bestsellers “Connect First” by Melanie Katzman and “Zero to IPO” by Frederic Kerrest. Casey played a pivotal role at McGraw Hill in establishing the healthcare category into a robust multi-million dollar program, which featured prominent titles like the New York Times Science bestseller “The Digital Doctor” and “The Cleveland Clinic Way”.Starting Up and Striking OutCasey's journey into the world of editing began in her formative years as a passionate bookworm. In high school, she took a significant step toward her publishing dreams by becoming the English editor for her school's literary publication called “Facets”. She reveled in the collaborative process with other editors and took pleasure in discovering the literary talents of her peers. Her passion further intensified in university, where she joined the literary publication named “Heights”, participating in deeper, more advanced discussions about submitted works. These university experiences exposed her to diverse opinions and debates, making the editing environment incredibly stimulating and enriching for her.A Book is a Business“Writing a book is like starting a business,” according to Casey. Authors are entrepreneurs introducing a unique product to the market. In essence, the book is a reflection of the author's ideas and beliefs, and its promotion doesn't end post-publication. Some successful books keep selling years or even decades after their release, and this continued success comes from the author's dedication to the ideas and ensuring they reach as many readers as possible. Publishing a book is a long-term commitment that requires careful execution, planning, and motivation. “A lot of people think about it in terms of the first three months or the first six months or first year or first three years after a book is published. I think that's really short sighted because if the ideas are good, they're good from now till kingdom come,” Casey shares. A book, like a product, needs to find its audience, establish product-market fit, and receive investment for growth, Barry agrees. “It never ends.”Investing in IdeasBarry and Casey discuss the challenges of book publishing. Barry remarks that the journey isn't just about having a great idea; it's about putting in the necessary work to present the idea, penning an entire chapter about it, and then devising a plan on how to maximize its potential. Likening this to the startup experience, Barry notes, “It's almost like I had to have a pitch deck. What's the problem I'm solving? Who's the target customer? What's my go-to-market plan? How am I going to generate sales and then also write a chapter to exemplify the idea?” Casey comments that selecting a manuscript is similar to venture capitalists choosing a startup to invest in.Looking AheadCasey wants authors to confidently claim their space, believing they are uniquely positioned to address a topic due to their specific experiences, inventions, or groundbreaking insights. This individuality becomes crucial when competing against established names in the industry, given that readers will be investing both money and time in their book.Read full show notes at BarryOReilly.comResourcesCasey Ebro on LinkedIn

Jim Campbell, author of "Madoff Talks: Uncovering the untold story behind the most notorious ponzi scheme in history."

Author Jim Campbell joins me to discuss his latest book, Madoff Talks, which features 400 pages of conversation with Bernard Madoff which is the subject of a Netflix documentary, Madoff: The Monster of Wall Street

Jim Campbell, author of “Madoff Talks” and featured in the recently released Netflix documentary, “Madoff:  Monster of Wall Street,” joins the podcast to talk about FTX.  Having studied both men, he compares what we know about Bankman-Fried and Madoff.

A Financial Sociopath/Serial Killer is how Jim Campbell, author of “Madoff Talks” described Bernie Madoff. Netflix acquired rights to Jim's book and Jim served as an Executive Producer on the docuseries ‘Madoff: The Monster of Wall Street which debuted Jan. 4th. I watched it last night. It's a 4 part series about the unimaginable corruption and fraudulent schemes committed by the globally infamous former chairman of NASDAQ and American financier Bernie Madoff who orchestrated the largest Ponzi scheme in world history fleecing thousands of investors out of $65 billion. It's also about ‘the willfully blind financial system that allowed it to flourish for decades' said the Netflix trailer. Jim Campbell, who joined me on The Debbie Nigro Show, was able to get the most comprehensive insider account of how this could happen, through his exclusive interviews with all the players including Madoff himself through personal communications with him while he was in prison. It's an incredible and outrageous story that Jim personally got the last word on. And honestly, the last word from Bernie Madoff from prison. Jim felt lucky that Joe Berlinger, the top Netflix true crime documentary director was behind it. He's the guy who did the Jeffrey Epstein, Elaine Maxwell, Ted Bundy, and Whitey Bulger documentaries too. Jim said, Joe actually took the story from the book and adhered to it, and to him, that was a great honor. “It's a very complex story, said Jim. And he told it basically like I did. He let me basically be able to do that. It's his thing. It's his show. He's done everything in it. The way he put it together, the recreations that are so creative, the two sets of the 19th, 17th floors that reflected Madoff's brain split between one totally legitimate, and one totally criminal enterprise. Berlinger did that. So it's been a big thrill for me. By the way, the co-executive producer credit, my contract said producer. So they promoted me without even telling me I didn't see it till I saw it on the screen. “ Jim Campbell wrote the book “Madoff Talks” and then Netflix optioned the rights for their docuseries, ‘Madoff: The Monster of Wall Street. ‘Optioning the Rights', means Netflix purchased exclusive access to his book for three years. Jim also had turned over 40,000 documents to them as well. So how long did it take for Jim to write the book ‘Madoff Talks'? “If you include the fact that I started talking to Bernie Madoff back in like 2011 it took about 10 years”. I wondered what it felt like for Jim the first time he spoke directly to Bernie Madoff? Jim said, ““Yeah, you know he just destroyed so many people's lives. And remember back at that time, he was like the biggest villain on the planet. And yet he was very charismatic, brilliant, had total recall. And you could see that his ego was so strong. What Madoff said to Jim was, “I had a legitimate business. I'm brilliant. My strategy, the fake one called split strike conversion actually worked except Jim, I know I wasn't doing real trading”. Jim in his conversations with Madoff described him as sort of delusional. “You know, justifying that it worked, but then he was not really doing it for real. He had an unfathomable brain that he could compartmentalize it the way he did. Madoff built the business from scratch, and was doing the number three volume on the New York Stock Exchange. And you think, well, then something must have happened over here. he must have lost some money and like a gambler, he made the classic mistake. He's told me that story. “ Recalling the conversation with Madoff, Jim says it was like, “Yeah, I was going to do a Ponzi scheme under the table. It was a mistake. I'd get the money back and no one would ever notice.” Jim shared that Madoff was building the legitimate business and the Ponzi business at the exact same time. Intentionally, intentionally. And at the same time. “It wasn't intentionally in terms of I'm a crook and I'm trying to steal your money, said Jim. It was he couldn't psychologically accept losses. The legitimate business is trading. You're making commissions markets up markets down. He suddenly saw he could lose money on trades and he could not deal with that. And that's what the genesis of it. But to do them at the same time, you have to have one screwed up mind.” I found it crazy that so many really smart people just kept handing Madoff money especially as the documentary pointed out, that there was no official letterheadon nice paper on the statements from the bogus company that was sent to customers. They were more like graph sheets from a laser printer and I found it t absurd no one ever questioned that? No one? Jim said, “No one. No. I never found anybody that understood what his strategy was, which was very simple conceptually and should have mirrored the stock market, which obviously it didn't because it always went up.” “They both bought this veneer of trust that it worked.” It's my experience that most people buy the person behind the brand in most categories in life. So here you have this monster who was once revered, who I guess people assumed could not do anything wrong, and he creates a bond scheme and ends up 65 billion dollars get lost and a zillion people's lives get wrecked. One poor guy featured in the Netflix series lost not only his money, but his house. It was hard to watch him speak through his tears. I'm aware some of Madoff's victims got recourse and retribution. In this podcast Jim speaks to where that money came from and admits its a sore subject for him because usually nobody gets money back in a ponzi scheme. Jim Campbell thought the documentary was really well done and enjoyed working with everyone involved out at a big studio in New Jersey where they built the sets. “I got to meet everybody out there and the interesting thing was, none of these guys came out of a serial killer documentary world. None of them knew a thing about finance. So they actually let me teach them for about five months before they start filming. Then they filmed for four or five months. And then Netflix took it to get it ready for the other countries for three or four months. And thats was the process. I do not know the Netflix people very well. But they, they treated me incredibly well. Radical Media is the name of the production company, and Joe Burland was the director. I met all their folks and all the other producers and other fabulous contributors. “ I brought up to Jim that the opening part of the first segment or the first portion of the documentary, the scene where a grown son and his mother who was invested with Bernie Madoff ran into him in Palm Beach at the golf course. The son says hey, you just ran into Bernie Madoff! And the mother responds, yes but did you notice he never looks directly at you?” I thought that was a very loud. I asked Jim if anybody else had said that along the way? “I haven't heard that, but what he did have was a series of ticks, that made him look real strange, like there was something that was in his brain that he was trying to keep down.” He went on to say about Madoff, “He didn't like to meet with any of the people in the dirty business, he loved to meet with the Presidents of the brokerage firms, for what his real legitimate business did which was trade for customers of Schwab and folks like that. And so he did all the execution for them. So yes, he was a strange guy. “ So did his family members know what was going on? “I did that in chapter 8 of my book, you know, I started my book with the Justice Department, the trustee, the media and the people all thinking that Mark, Andrew, and Ruth had to know or were involved. I did my own investigation. It literally came right down to the end because one of the things is Bernie took 800 million of customers money and stuck it into the back door of the legitimate business, when it had problems through the trading desk, calling them trading losses and covering up, etc. Well, who ran the trading desk, Mark and Andrew? So that didn't look good, but I did figure it out and I contrary to what all these other folks say they did not know about it. They were not involved. Does that mean they're they shouldn't have known about it? Well, shouldn't the SEC have known about it? “ “Now, the real story is the government failed, Wall Street failed, all these firms were shipping money, right? And Bernie gave them the fees back, which they explained as their job is only due diligence. Someone has money and they're is looking for these kinds of things, say, very conservative. And say Bob is a money manager and it's his job is to see that the other person is real, that he's doing what you say and puts the money with the person that matches. Bernie wouldn't allow any due diligence. So they took fees they would never get in order not to ask questions. Oh, that's called willful blindness. That's really loud. Some made over a billion dollars in fees.” Jim Campbell says Bernie Madoff had no empathy. Bernie Madoff would tell me, “Jim, my lawyers tell me I'm supposed to show empathy. I don't believe these people are living in dumpsters now like everybody is saying and they don't have and by the way, I don't see it happening it.” The other thing Jim said Bernie Madoff suffered from was narcissism.” “Always the victim and pathological lying and control and the ego just dominates you and both of those things were true in his life. “ “But I gotta tell you”, said Jim, “he came across very low key, charismatic, trusting. He ran his firm, particularly the legitimate side as a family. He paid for people's honeymoon. He paid for sudden emergencies. And this is before he stole the money to pay for it. So there were people that I know that stayed in that firm because he treated them well.” What has changed in terms of regulations in the financial industry since this story? Now, if you take Bernie's instance, they can catch the Ponzi scheme now, the SEC. They did five investigations back then and never saw it. They know how to look for Ponzi scheme. now except maybe if it's offshore, where a lot of the stuff is. But the SEC is not a cop, which is what people believe it is and what they try to tell you it is. They're not equipped to find these things upfront. And the crypto thing has been unregulated now for several years. Aware that Bernie Madoff died in prison I was curious where Bernie Madoff might be buried? Jim said nobody had ever asked that question. “Okay, if you know Jewish custom, you are supposed to be in the ground within 24 hours. His remains are cremated, which is also not in the Jewish faith or custom. His remains are in a jar in his lawyer's office because the family wouldn't take them.”   This is the podcast of the insightful conversation I had with Jim Campbell on the Debbie Nigro show about the man behind the biggest Ponzi scam in history.

Given recent events in the world of Cryptocurrency, almost everyone in business is currently pondering the following question: Is Sam Bankman-Fried, founder and CEO of the crypto exchange FTX, the Bernie Madoff of Crypto? Or is he merely an entrepreneur who made some horrible errors? Today at Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, we are joined by the legendary Jim Campbell to examine this question. Jim Campbell is the author of the bestselling definitive book on Bernie Madoff called Madoff Talks. We did a deep dive with him on the book and on the topic of Madoff himself. Check it out if you're interested in how Madoff manipulated everything before it all fell apart (FYD 217). On this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, we go deep with Jim Campbell on the similarities and the differences on old school scammers like Bernie Madoff and the disaster that is Sam Bankman-Fried and the fate of FTX. Jim Campbell on Sam Bankman-Fried: Madoff 2.0 or not? The dialogue starts off direct to the point: is Sam Bankman-Fried Madoff 2.0? Jim responds that there are similarities but also differences between the two. The biggest similarities is that both Madoff and Bankman-Fried comingled their firm and customer assets to boost the value of its company, with Bankman going so far as to use said money to create more connections in the tech, business, and even so far as government and politics. Both were also involved in something like a Ponzi scheme, though FTX allegedly took it a step further by using its own FTX tokens as collateral to further increase its own valuation, which is a form of market manipulation. The baffling behavior of Sam Bankman-Fried When you are accused of a crime as big as the one Sam Bankman-Fried is currently facing, it's normal to avoid the public eye for a while, and make no statements unless in the presence of their lawyer, lest they say something incriminating. Which is why Sam Bankman-Fried's behavior baffles everyone, as he goes so far as guest for certain podcasts and interviews. Yet he still had the arrogance and audacity to say that he didn't know what he has done would result in a loss of $32 billion dollars for their investors and consumers. Jim Campbell on doing your due diligence The thing is, there were a lot of questionable aspects to FTX, once you dug into their model. Unfortunately, doing the due diligence seems to be a rare thing nowadays, due to the fear of missing out. With the boom of crypto in the latter half of the 2010s and even more so during the pandemic, investors wanted to hop it to latest coin or token, should it increase in value exponentially like what happened to Bitcoin. Some tech companies and businesses are also guilty in this regard. Take for example on what happened to Theranos. Businesses were so eager to jump in even with just a concept, because they think it'll be more expensive to establish connections and partnerships later on. Some were dazzled by the names attached to the concept, others by the “projected” earnings should it be developed. In the end, they all lost their investments because they couldn't be bothered to do their due diligence beforehand. To hear more from Jim Campbell, download and listen to this episode.

No name is more synonymous with the evils of Wall Street than Bernie Madoff. Arrested for fraud in 2008―during the depths of the global financial crisis―the 70-year-old market maker, investment advisor, and former chairman of the NASDAQ had orchestrated the largest Ponzi scheme in world history, fleecing thousands of investors across the globe to the tune of $65 billion. To this day, questions remain: Why did he do it? How did he get away with it for so long? What did his family know? In Madoff Talks, Jim Campbell presents the most comprehensive, insider account of the Madoff saga to date. Based on exclusive interviews with all the players―the Madoff family and their associates, the Wall Street wheelers and dealers, the army of lawyers, analysts, and investigators, the victims of the scheme, and Bernie Madoff himself–Jim reveals: -what motivated a respected financier to commit such a massive fraud―and why he thought he could get away with it -how Madoff managed to keep the scheme hidden in plain sight―despite numerous SEC investigations -the shocking failures of Wall Street oversight―and how it could happen again -the true scale of the investment losses―and the victims’ ongoing fight for justice -what Ruth Madoff and the rest of the family knew―and how it shattered their lives Madoff Talks features the first, and likely only, interviews with Ruth Madoff and defense attorney Ira Sorkin, for which Bernie waived attorney-client privilege, as well as never-before-published details from the author’s personal communications with Bernie Madoff in prison. A vivid, powerful piece of investigative reporting, the book takes us behind the headlines to show the full human cost of Madoff’s crimes, and offers a cogent analysis of the reforms necessary to prevent it from happening again.

There’s scams, crimes, and frauds. Then there’s what Bernie Madoff did. CNBC says that he committed the nation’s biggest investment fraud. The Wall Street Journal called it “the biggest ponzi scheme in history.” At sentencing, Judge Denny Chin called Madoff’s crimes “extraordinarily evil”. In the end, many people lost everything they had. For those who are unaware, Madoff stole $19.5 billion, which he said had grown to $64.8 billion. Though not a single dollar or penny was ever invested in anything. He stole it, plain and simple. Jim Campbell joins us in this episode of Follow Your Different, as we cover his book about the topic. His book, Madoff Talks, is already being considered as an authoritative source on this massive crime committed by Bernie Madoff that impoverished thousands of investors around the world. What you are about to hear is a deep, shocking, and riveting dialogue that takes you through it all. From how Madoff did it, to the systemic problems with US regulators and the ongoing failure of the SEC. The Hows and Whys of the Book When asked how the book came to be, Jim talks about how he had built a connection with Bernie Madoff. What started as a simple correspondence culminated in over 400 pages of communication over several years. Jim figured that with all the information he has, it would be a shame to not do anything with it. So began his mission to investigate and sort out the truths and lies about Madoff’s claims. As to why he wrote the book, he had 3 major motives for it: He wanted to know how Bernie’s mind operated The architecture of the whole failure: It was not just Madoff acting alone, but the system enabling him to do so Whether or not Madoff's family knew about it  “The mission to expose the failure of the system is the real takeaway of the book. People were interested in the sexy part: Bernie talking, what did Ruth know, and how the heck did he get away with it. Which is all fascinating and riveting stuff, but the takeaway is this is what had happened and how it happened.” – Jim Campbell How Madoff Exploited the System Jim shares how Madoff worked his way around the system, subverting 5 SEC investigations before someone finally figured it out. Madoff did so by exploiting the system itself, in small ways to keep it unnoticeable. What surprised Jim is how Madoff ran a legitimate, squeaky-clean company to hide his other dealings. So while the company took the brunt of investigations, they couldn’t catch him on anything. Simply because there was nothing to catch on that front. He further explains that the SEC did not have the right examiners on the case. They kept exonerating him on the wrong crime, which was Frontrunning. The final piece of it was the examiners were never allowed to talk to anyone else in the firm except for Bernie or his right-hand man. “So he blocked them, he took advantage of the silos, and they kept investigating the wrong (thing). They chased the wrong rabbit.” – Jim Campbell Penalties, or Lack Thereof Jim goes on to iterate how Bernie Madoff gamed the system and played to its weaknesses. By studying how individual silos operate and the lack of communication thereof, he got away with a lot of things. What’s fascinating and horrendous at the same time is that he could’ve easily been called out on his subterfuges had people been more thorough in their line of work. Yet Bernie had a trick for this as well, by usually calling in right before the weekend or after trade hours and seemingly burying details in “paperwork”, or having to check in a foreign office that doesn’t really exist. When asked if heads rolled after the whole ordeal was made public, here’s what Jim Campbell had to say: “The SEC reports were excellent reports. None of them were censored, so you got to give them credit. Except they issued it on a Labor Day weekend, with hardly any coverage. Eight people were demoted at the SEC, none at the management level. So yeah, nobody was penalized.

There’s scams, crimes, and frauds. Then there’s what Bernie Madoff did. CNBC says that he committed the nation’s biggest investment fraud. The Wall Street Journal called it “the biggest ponzi scheme in history.” At sentencing, Judge Denny Chin called Madoff’s crimes “extraordinarily evil”. In the end, many people lost everything they had. For those who are unaware, Madoff stole $19.5 billion, which he said had grown to $64.8 billion. Though not a single dollar or penny was ever invested in anything. He stole it, plain and simple. Jim Campbell joins us in this episode of Follow Your Different, as we cover his book about the topic.
