Cohen relates his story in two formats, both in the conversation of the podcast as well as an autography "Ticket To The Limit" in which Cohen details taking his $1,200 life savings and betting himself, by investing in No. 3 Texas Longhorn's men's basketball tickets tickets in 1990, selling those $6 tickets for $15 each. Cohen has built a larger than life persona and empire, with employees who have averaged 19 years with the company, which now generates over $100 million in revenue. Cohen expands on his thoughts about the primary and secondary, as well as some of the legal ramifications coming down the pike with the class action lawsuits in California and New Jersey.
