Ep 08 From Stockbroker to Drug Trade to the Legit Art Biz




Working Sunday show

Summary: Today we have a guy who barely made it through high school. He then somehow became one of the youngest floor traders at the SF Stock Exchange at age 19 ... before giving it up to spend the majority of his twenties in the drug trade. Not street level. I’m talking weight. Now, Sorell Raino-Tsui is an accomplished legitimate business person, improving the Oakland community, coordinating highly visible well-paid public art, and selling original works as a partner in the art space Athen B Gallery. He is a ferociously smart student of life. And his story should serve as inspiration to anyone who may believe it is too late for them to make a big change in their life. This episode is jampacked with his incredible personal narrative – as well as a nuts and bolts description of how their art gallery operates. ... we’ve also got insight into some smart ways to run big drug deals, if anyone out there is into that... So sit back, strap in, and enjoy the show!
