As a commodity trading advisor, he helped scale a firm from $4 million to $250 million AUM in just 48 months. He thrived in a high-risk industry, reaping extraordinary rewards—until it all came crashing down.

Listen to his story of how he went from a burned-out telemarketer to a respected authority sought after by high net worth clients across the country.

At the peak of his career, he had it all—status, success, and a waitlist of million-dollar clients. Until it all disappeared.

In this conversation, Michael shares what came next: a personal unraveling, a reinvention, and the creation of High Net Worth Clients, his current work helping commodity trading advisors escape the grind and attract clients with ease.

We talk about the “other side of success,” the challenges of starting over, and why most experts don’t know how to market what they do—especially in tightly regulated industries like finance and law.

We explore:

• The upside and downside of living a high-risk life
• His revolutionary approach to client acquisition
• How to shift from chasing clients to becoming a magnet for high-net-worth investors
• Why skill alone isn’t enough to grow a business
• The unexpected upside of failure and how to find your calling after crisis
• The art of teaching first and selling last
