Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A former commodities trader gives an intimate glimpse into what it was like to work on the raucous exchange floors in the trading pits of Chicago and New York.In 1989, Brad Schaeffer was working as an artist when his trader brother invited him to visit the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Ex…change. Schaeffer promptly quit his job and became a clerk in that most iconic arena of raw capitalism. During the next six years, Schaeffer rose from clerk to trader, making markets on Eurodollar options in Chicago and heating oil options in New York. In that time, jammed literally shoulder-to-shoulder, he screamed, flailed his arms, hurled expletives, and pushed and shoved his way through his day. He was a keen observer of the methodology, incidents, and personalities that made the now-extinct open outcry trading pits such a unique place to do business. Life in the Pits recollects those last, most glorious days when red-faced alphas in colorful jackets performed thousands of transactions per hour, even as computerized trading heralded the floors ultimate demise. Schaeffer recalls the uneasy camaraderie of working right next to fierce competitors, the sheer intensity of dealing in stacks of money changing hands with a simple scream or hand signal, and the hijinks, excesses, and collection of characters as colorful as the jackets they wore, giving the reader an intimate look into what life was like down in the financial mosh pits. A worthy successor to Liars Poker and Reminiscences of a Stock Operator, Life in the Pits offers nuggets of wisdom on what makes a successful trader and the rules all must follow to survive in such an unforgiving environment. Schaeffers often hilarious, yet sometimes profound, reflections take us on his personal journey from penniless artist to moving millions of dollars worth of commodities in the blink of an eyecourtesy of being thrown into the crucible of the trading floors that are no moreand explore the lessons he learned along the way. Brads book about those now bygone days of the trading pits is both hilarious and insightful. Anyone interested in how markets behave, how to trade them, and the broader life lessons such a stressful work environment imparted should add this easily digestible read to their collection of business literature. I spent years on the floor, and this fun and lighthearted reflection on those truly unique business venues brings it all back to life. I highly recommend it. J. Robert Collins Jr., CEO of Mercantile Bank International and Former President of the New York Mercantile Exchange A former commodities trader gives an intimate glimpse into what it was like to work on the raucous exchange floors in the trading pits of Chicago and New York.

A fun-filled portrait of Provence told by an American bestselling author who knows France intimately and unwraps people and places with devastating insightand laugh-out-loud humor.Americans have long had a love affair with Provence: its glamour, its mystique, its foreignness. But never have… they had a guide like Ken Timmerman. Bursting with humorous stories about local characters and vivid description of French landscapes and customs gleaned from thirty-five years in the country, Raising Olives in Provence tells the story of how the author improbably came to renovate a run-down house and raise olive trees in the hills above Saint-Tropez.

In his other life as a war correspondent and investigative reporter, Timmerman deals with the horrors and betrayals of a world gone mad, always returning to this hillside in the south of France as a refuge. But even here, intrigue and treachery lie just beneath the surface, along with mysterious visitors on the hillside, an olive thief, phony artists and wannabe aristocrats, and the endless love adventures of his French neighbors. Love, faith, marriage, and friendshipwith a sprinkling of salt, thyme, and some olive oil, please! And dont forget the rose. A fun-filled portrait of Provence told by an American bestselling author who knows France intimately and unwraps people and places with devastating insightand laugh-out-loud humour.

Under Millers leadership, Disney expanded into new frontiers: global theme parks, computer animation, cable television, home video, and video games. Despite these innovations, Ron struggled to expand the Disney brand beyond its midcentury image of wholesome family entertainment, even as times and tastes evolved. Tensions between Miller and Walts nephew, Roy E. Disney, threatened to destroy the company, leading Wall Street Gordon Gekko types to come after Mickey Mouse. At the same time, the aging Animation Departmentonce the core of Walts businesswas one memo away from shutting down forever. Rather, thanks to the radical efforts of Walts veterans to recruit and nurture young talent, it was revived by this sudden influx of artists who would go on to revolutionize the film industry. Additionally, this new generation would prove over time that animation was so much more than just kids stuffit was a multibillion dollar industry. This is the upstairs-downstairs story of the executives and animators who clashed and collaborated to keep Americas most storied company alive during the most uncertain period in its one hundred year history. The untold succession struggle at Walt Disney Productions following the death of its founder, and the generational transformation which led to the birth of the modern multibillion-dollar animation industry.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. What if the only way to understand your life was to live it in reverse?In this wild, unfiltered, and darkly hilarious memoir, Jeff Swaney tears through his past, revealing the chaos, grit, and accidental wisdom that shaped him. Told in the immersive, raw style of Gonzo journalism, None of t…he Answers: Racing Through Life in Reverse takes readers on a journey through a life defined by risk, reinvention, and adventure. Born dirt-poor in Detroit, Swaney navigates a childhood of adversity before launching into decades of outrageous experiences: death-defying outdoor stunts, chaotic college detours, broke-and-reckless global travel, underground nightclubs, business triumphs, financial collapse, and a surprising rebirth as a single father at sixty. Through every reversal, he proves that a meaningful life isnt built from perfect choices, but from surviving the messy ones. Inside This Memoir, You Will Discover: A true rags-to-riches story, from Detroit poverty to Dallas business leadership. Unfiltered Gonzo-style storytelling filled with humor, vulnerability, and reckless honesty. Adventure-driven chapters featuring wild travel, near disasters, and unforgettable characters. Lessons in resilience, grit, and reinvention from real-life chaos. A rare look at fatherhood at sixty and the transformative power of starting over. Dark humor and self-deprecation that make even the hardest moments unexpectedly hilarious. More than a personal adventure story, more than a business memoir, this is a life lived full-throttle, stripped of pretense, and told with the fearless voice of someone who refuses to pretend he has all the answers. If you love Gonzo memoirs, entrepreneur life stories, rags-to-riches journeys, or unfiltered reflections on purpose and identity, this book will stay with you long after the final chapter. A memoir for anyone who has ever crashed, rebuilt, and kept moving, no matter how chaotic the road looked in reverse. What if the only way to understand your life was to live it in reverse?

Bestselling author, co-host of the hit podcast The Murder Squad, and true-crime investigative journalist Billy Jensen goes to Columbus, Ohio, where he examines the unsolved cases of eighteen dead and missing women, whom he suspects were the victims of serial killers on the loose and operati…ng under cover of the opioid epidemic in America's heartland.In Chase Darkness with Me, readers and listeners learned Billy Jensen's journalist origin story, his struggles, his call to adventure, and his first successes in solving murders. In Killers Amidst Killers, readers will ride shotgun with Jensen as he takes on serial killers who are walking among us and planning their next moves in real time. The facts are not in old police reports and faded photos. They unfold before our eyes on the page. Our story begins in 2017, when two young women, best friends Danielle and Lindsey go missing in Columbus, Ohio, within weeks of each other, and their bodies are found soon thereafter. As Jensen investigates Danielle and Lindsey's cases, he comes across other missing and murdered women, and before long, he uncovers eighteen of them. All unsolved. And no one was talking about it. These are not women who were raised in the street. They got hooked on pills. The pills were taken away. They get hooked on heroin. And when the money is gone, they have to sell themselves. It happens very quick. Through his investigations and the help of experts, Jensen identifies serial killers in Cleveland and Columbus. Why there? Because it's easy. Sharks go where the swimmers are. Serial killers go where the easy prey are: Ground zero of the opioid epidemic. The heart of America. That is what happened to Danielle and Lindsey. But serial killers murdering sex workers in the 21st century will get 45 seconds on the local news, and page 3 in the local paper, and then can disappear in the wind. Jensen hunts these predators to bring peace to the victims' suffering families while putting a spotlight on a system that is leaving hundreds of thousands of bodies in its wake. Bestselling author, co-host of the hit podcast The Murder Squad, and true-crime investigative journalist Billy Jensen goes to Columbus, Ohio, where he examines the unsolved cases of eighteen dead and missing women, whom he suspects were the victims of serial killers on the loose and operating under cover of the opioid epidemic in America's heartland.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Meet the Jewish salon host in 1930s Shanghai who brought together Chinese and expats around the arts as civil war erupted and World War II loomed on the horizon.Bernardine Szold Fritz arrived in Shanghai in 1929 to marry her fourth husband. Only thirty-three years old, she found herself in…a time and place like no other. Political intrigue and scandal lurked on every street corner. Art Deco cinemas showed the latest Hollywood flicks, while dancehall owners and jazz musicians turned Shanghai into Asias top nightlife destination. Yet from the night of their wedding, Bernardines new husband did not live up to his promises. Instead of feeling sorry for herself or leaving Shanghai, Bernardine decided to make a place for herself. Like other Jewish women before her, she started a salon in her home, drawing famous names from the world of politics, the arts, and the intelligentsia. She introduced Emily Hahn, the charismatic opium-smoking writer for The New Yorker, to the flamboyant hotelier Sir Victor Sassoon and legendary poet Sinmay Zau. And when Hollywood stars Anna May Wong, Charlie Chaplin, and Claudette Colbert passed through Shanghai, Bernardine organized gatherings to introduce them to their Shanghai contemporaries. When Bernardines salon could not accommodate all who wanted to attend, she founded the International Arts Theater to produce avant-garde plays, ballets, lectures, and visual arts exhibits, often pushing audiences beyond their comfort zones. As civil war brewed and World War II soon followed, Bernardines devotion to the arts and the people of Shanghai brought joy to the city just before it would change forever. Meet the Jewish salon host in 1930s Shanghai who brought together Chinese and expats around the arts as civil war erupted and World War II loomed on the horizon.
