He went from selling shoes to wealthy businessmen at the mall to managing a client book worth over $100 MILLION. And it all started with a conversation. In this episode of The Catch Window Podcast, Omega Stallworth sits down with Carlo Turner, Senior Investment Strategist and Fund Manager at the CEO Fund, to uncover the remarkable story of how a college dropout selling men's shoes found his way into the world of Wall Street, wealthy investors, and international finance. Carlo wasn't born into the financial industry. He didn't have an impressive degree or powerful connections. But one day, two wealthy businessmen walked into the shoe store where he worked. What happened next would completely change the direction of his life. That encounter opened the door to commodities trading, a career managing millions of dollars, working with wealthy families, celebrities, and professional athletes, and eventually retiring in his 30s. But Carlo's greatest lessons weren't necessarily about making money. They were about recognizing opportunities, learning from people who had already achieved what he wanted, controlling risk, building meaningful relationships, and understanding the difference between knowledge and wisdom. In this episode, you'll discover: How selling shoes to wealthy businessmen opened the door to Wall Street Why Carlo dropped out of college and how that decision shaped his future The conversations that changed the trajectory of his career How he built a client book worth more than $100 million Why he willingly spent $500–$600 on lunches just to learn from successful investors What wealthy people understand about money that most people never learn Why education alone doesn't guarantee financial success How to recognize opportunities before they pass Why controlling risk is more important than avoiding it How building the right team gave Carlo his freedom back The real estate investing strategy most people have never heard of How mortgage-note investing works without owning or managing properties Carlo also shares his approach to alternative real estate investing through the Crown Estates Opportunity Fund (CEO Fund), including mortgage notes, retirement accounts, and strategies designed to generate investment income. Whether you're building a business, looking to grow your wealth, or wondering how ordinary people create extraordinary opportunities, this conversation reveals why one relationship, one decision, or one conversation can change everything.
