What happens when a business deal looks too good to be true?
In this episode of My Favorite Mistake, host Mark Graban talks with Kevin Hipes, often called the “New York Forrest Gump,” about one of the most unbelievable business mistakes you’ll ever hear — buying an oil tanker in the Caribbean.
What started as a rock-solid pro forma and a seemingly guaranteed profit turned into a series of international complications, political changes, ethical dilemmas, and even an encounter with the Venezuelan Navy.
