Former Federal Reserve Exec Talks Crypto, Debt & Dollars | Juan Del Busto
A
A Day in Miami
Sobre este episodio
Juan Del Busto, former Regional Executive at the Federal Reserve and board member at Ocean Bank, takes us behind the curtain of the American financial system. From money printing and dollar destruction to crypto, tariffs, and national debt, he explains what’s really happening with our economy — and what most people don’t understand.
We also talk about how the Fed changed post-9/11, what happened during the AIG bailout, and how Juan’s immigrant journey from Cuba shaped his worldview. Plus: his love for rum and his top Miami restaurant picks.
