Peter Tuchman is a stock trader on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. He has been called the "most photographed trader on Wall Street.” Tuchman's photo is widely recognized for its affiliation to market news. Tuchman has strong, emotional expressions of anguish, anticipation, desperation, and triumph which he says are genuine. His photo is often chosen for news about Wall Street particularly on days of market volatility. Some say that he resembles Albert Einstein and that this is what makes his photo intriguing.

Today on The Casey Adams Show I sat down with Sam Rattner. 


In this captivating episode, we sit down with Sam Rattner, the visionary founder of Victory and Showroom, who sold his first company for a staggering $40M at just 23. Sam takes us through his thrilling journey in the online gambling and fashion e-commerce industries, sharing the highs and lows of building a business in a regulated market. He emphasizes the importance of taking risks early in life, being fully informed before pitching investors, and the concept behind Showroom—a revolutionary vertical-specific search engine for fashion and e-commerce.


Takeaways


-Starting a business in a regulated market requires navigating complex regulatory processes and compliance requirements.
- Building an asset along the way is important, as it increases the value of the business and makes it more attractive to potential buyers.
- Taking risks early in life, when there are fewer responsibilities, can lead to greater opportunities and success.
- When pitching investors, it is important to be fully informed about the business and to have a clear understanding of the market and competition.
- The future of shopping may involve vertical-specific search engines that provide a more personalized and efficient shopping experience. Product discovery is a challenge in the e-commerce industry, and traditional keyword-based search engines are not effective in helping users find what they are looking for.
- Building relationships with partners is crucial for Showroom's success, and the company curates a list of high-quality brands to ensure a positive user experience.
