One Foot In The Grave

He goes to work with police escort. He is a gatekeeper to the worst behavior of the biggest banks, law firms and corporations in the world. He’s overseen the ruin of thousands of companies. 80% of his clients die.
Corporate Undertaker is the true story of a modern day Wall Street hired gun. 
We follow the journey of a naïve but optimistic, young student searching for fortune along a treacherous path. In the waning days of the Soviet Union in 1991 he attends university in Moscow. It is there that the seeds of prosperity are sown. Soon, he starts one business that becomes three. Amidst, street violence, gang threats, military coup attempts, he rises through the ranks eventually owning his own bank. As his wealth grows so does the threat to his life. At the cross roads, staring into a bag of explosives, he has a decision to make; stay and kill or save his family and walk away with nothing. 
He packed his bags and walked away from millions.  Bruised and beaten, he decides to start over in America. He decides that he will work with only legitimate and law abiding businesses. He studies extensively, works as a business analyst, rises through the ranks again. He soon discovers another new and unknown world; the world of distressed banking. In these dark and hidden corners of the largest banks in the world are rooms filled with misfits, outcasts and criminals. Every day they fight over the prospect of losing millions of dollars. It’s a graveyard of half-dead companies. It is a place where only the sharpest and toughest minds can survive. With the prospect of building a new fortune our hero is pulled into this world. Again, despite his best and most sincere efforts, he is crushed.  It is here where he learns that the legitimate corporate world is dirtier and far more dangerous than working with the mob. It is here where he changes. He sheds all pretense of civility and sense of diplomacy. It is here where he becomes an enforcer on his own terms. Depending on the day and the situation you never know whose side he will take. In this podcast series, you will follow him along this journey of the dead and dying where he faces murder, suicide, blackmail, fraud, corruption and decay of the human soul – all in the name of money.
