This week, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Anthony Scaramucci, a true embodiment of resilience, reinvention, and grit. Best known as the founder and managing partner of SkyBridge Capital, Anthony’s journey has taken him from humble beginnings in Long Island to the highest levels of Wall Street and a brief but unforgettable turn in Washington, D.C.
Anthony’s story is one of constant evolution. After starting his career at Goldman Sachs, he took the leap to build his own firm, navigating market cycles, public scrutiny, and personal setbacks along the way. What stands out most about Anthony is his unwavering belief in the power of authenticity. Whether in finance, politics, or media, he’s never been afraid to speak his mind or challenge the status quo—and he’s built a business culture at SkyBridge that reflects those same values.
Our conversation touched on his upbringing, his biggest wins and losses, and the philosophy that’s kept him grounded through it all. We talked about what it really means to be an outsider, how to cultivate courage and curiosity throughout your life, and why staying true to yourself is the ultimate competitive edge.
Anthony’s energy, self-awareness, and candor make him a rare figure in any industry—and his ability to keep pushing forward, no matter the obstacles, is both inspiring and instructive.
I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did.
