Tuned Into Business:

Entrepreneurs as seen on TV

By Michelle Anton
Season 2 of “Wall Street Warriors”

Wall Street Warriors’ season premiere is Thursday, January 24 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT. This 10-part documentary series profiles six driven financial investors, fiercely battling to generate as much money as possible while worldwide markets vacillate.

The series also kicks off a new programming block every Thursday entitled MOJO Money Night, which includes two new series about maverick entrepreneurs and investors: Bobby G: Adventure Capitalist (9:30 p.m. ET/PT) and Start-Up Junkies (10 p.m. ET/PT).

The entirely new cast for the second season of Wall Street Warriors is composed of six ambitious players who deal in billions:
Larry: Buying and selling commodity futures on orange juice crops that haven’t even been harvested, working in the midst of the frenzied trading floor.
Brett: Co-founder and owner of a private equity firm focused on investing in and growing small and medium-size businesses. He also established a charity group that focuses on cancer and education, issues personally important to him.
Jessica: A cotton commodities broker who feels that being a woman on the floor works to her advantage and expresses her need to be mentally tough to succeed.
Jim & Lance: A pair of high-energy stock brokers who oversee a team of competitive young brokers building portfolios for high net-worth investors.
Laetitia: Just starting out (viewers join her at her graduation and first job interview) and trying to find her way into an entry-level desk trader position.

The Wall Street Warriors are followed throughout the trading day, beginning with the opening bell. Whether buying and selling on the exchange floor, networking the night away or working intensely to meet their monthly targets, these “players” are driven to win.

Wall Street Warriors was created by Scott J. Gill and Sean Skelton for Radius Productions Inc. Executive producer for iN DEMAND is Emilio Nunez. Siobhan Graham is supervising producer.

    For an entertaining view of a the private equity segment of Wall Street, I would recommend reading “Imposters at the Gate: A Novel about Private Equity.”
