The Teenage CEO Who Fooled Wall Street

At 19, you make your first million. At 20, you’re one of the youngest CEO’s in America.  And soon you’re worth at least 100 million dollars.But you’re not a Hollywood big shot...or a tech genius. You’re that guy from the carpet cleaning commercials. In this episode of Truly Unreal, host James Lee Hernandez drops podcast host Lola Berry into the completely absurd rise of ZZZZ Best, a carpet cleaning company that somehow turns into a massive “insurance restoration” empire without actually doing any insurance restoration...or much carpet cleaning, for that matter. Through our choose-your-own-adventure format, Lola steps into the true story of Barry Minkow, a pathological liar with enough charisma to pull the hood over Wall Street, Oprah and even the mob to become the one of the most famous teen entrepreneurs in American history.Truly Unreal: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/trulyunrealshow/James Lee Hernandez: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/iamthejlh/⁠Lola Berry: https://www.instagram.com/yummololaberry/
