Ben Port (Ben Skull)

you know, in the gym the next day, looking at the San Diego Reader, it was like the newspaper, and there was an ad, and it said, learn Wall Street.

We'll train you.

So I literally bullshitted this resume, made it look great, went to this nice office in La Jolla, and these two guys were interviewing me.

One was like super tan, looked like George Hamilton, and the other guy, the other was a brother that was a dorky one.

So I closed them, and they're like, can you start Monday?

So I borrowed a shirt and tie,

Are they going to...

00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,

part right well we were doing we weren't doing like the brokerage side of the stuff we were doing more of the marketing so i would call a ceo and i'd say hey you know like we see your stock we could do we could help but we have investors we can send you know content to and stuff like that so i started getting really good on the phone and uh i was you know 21 years old naive as hell the guy that was all tan and looked like george hamilton he was always gucci'd out you know ferrari and stuff and uh and he was just a mess he was like in aa but he was still doing

and hookers and so i'm this young kid in the office seeing all this blow and hookers coming through and i was like what the hell and um that's how i kind of cut my teeth in the business and then i closed a few big deals they owed me you know 10 grand which felt like a million dollars at that time right um and they're giving me like 500 a week you know i was gonna say did they pay you no it's like they're just stringing me along to keep me fed but you know they never gave me my commission that listen i can't tell you how many times remember vitality

Yeah, that's exactly what happened I was getting really good and then these ceos were calling me and they're like They're like ben.

What the hell are you guys doing to my stock and nothing's happening or this and that and I finally started realizing

that they weren't doing anything for their clients.

And then one day the Gucci out guy, he pulls up and his old business partner pulls up in this like beautiful red brand new Ferrari.

And I'm like, I want to go work for that guy.

So I got his number, went to go work for him.

And he owned this, he was building this bar in La Jolla.

I took all my business there.

I closed him this deal that got FDA approval.

Remember those liquid bandaid companies?
