I lost a million dollars to a con artist.
I honestly thought I'd done everything right.
6 months of consulting. Met the employees. Visited the offices. Reviewed tax returns. Specialized attorneys. Airtight contracts.
I've run two billion-dollar companies. Made 100+ investments.
No way I get scammed.
Well...
The CEO disappeared. The money was gone.
But the harder part wasn't the loss.
It was what it said about my judgment. I'm a professional investor. That's my identity. Getting fooled shattered my confidence.
I didn't even want to tell my wife.
When I finally did, she asked me one question: "What did you learn?"
I didn't have an answer yet.
But that question wouldn't let me go. So I built something from it.
A four-part filter I now run on every deal:
1. Good people. Did you actually vet them?
2. Good intentions. You can't make a bad deal with a good person.
3. Good rationale. Every deal must make sense on a spreadsheet.
4. Good contracts. When the first three line up, this part is easy.
If one is missing, the answer is no.
No matter how good it looks.
That framework cost me a million dollars to build.
But I've never made the same mistake twice.
