Episode 31
26 min / Published

Being a career politician is a tough job. You have to pick sides on issues, you’re always in the public eye and you can’t always make everyone happy. It takes lifetime of putting yourself out there and hard work before people will trust you enough to lead. Our special guest today Gov Pete Rickets knows all about hard work as his father Joe Ricketts came up from humble beginnings to start something called a self directed brokerage that would eventually become TD Ameritrade. That’s right, the same TD Ameritrade that was acquired by Charles Schwab in 2019 for 26 billion dollars. But before all of the politics and fanfare the Ricketts were just your typical Omaha family.
