About The Book

Learn from the successes, the fights, and the failures of businessman and former White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci.

Have you just been fired? Did that job you were hoping to get not pan out? Did you recently end up embarrassing yourself in a major way in front of people you really wanted to impress?

Not to worry. There’s a way out of whatever you’re going through, and Anthony Scaramucci—or “The Mooch,” as he’s known to his friends—is the perfect person to point you in the right direction. Whatever you’re going through, he’s been through it already. Probably twice. And he’s learned a whole lot of lessons along the way.

In From Wall Street to the White House and Back, the Mooch sets down twenty-five of these lessons. Along the way, he tells wild tales from his time working in finance, politics, and a few strange places in between.

Readers will spend time in the Oval Office with President Donald Trump, visit the Bahamas with the disgraced crypto king Sam Bankman-Fried, and encounter pearls of wisdom from a few other unlikely sources in the world of business, national politics, and publishing.

If you’re interested in Eminem, Leo Tolstoy, Sigmund Freud, or Tony Robbins—all of whom are mentioned at least once in these pages—and you want to learn from the mistakes of one of the all-time great mistake-makers of our age, jump in.

Raves and Reviews

“I talked about embracing failure in my book, and I can say that Anthony’s book is a great tool for anyone that wants to learn how to bounce back from setbacks and failure.”

– Arnold Schwarzenegger, 38th Governor of the State of California

“Love him or hate him, there is nobody quite like my friend “The Mooch”. From the world of finance to D.C. his illustrious career is filled with successes, failures, and most importantly, stories, that only Anthony could tell. His experience both leading up to, and following, his 11 memorable days in the Trump White House is the kind of unique journey that makes this book a real page-turner, filled equally with lessons and laughs; and, an in-depth look into the life of one of the most interesting people I know.”

– Robert Wolf, Founder 32 Ventures, fmr Chairman UBS AmericaS

“We all fall. We all know life will bring struggle and suffering. The idea that "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" is only true if you know how to turn a challenge into an opportunity. That's what Anthony teaches us in this book. It is a gift.”

– Chris Cuomo, Anchor Newsnation
