Early life

Justin Paperny is a former stockbroker who went to federal prison for a conviction related to violating securities laws. Born on January 22, 1975, Paperny grew up in Encino, California. He graduated from Montclair College Preparatory School in 1993. While in high school, he distinguished himself as a baseball player. The University of Southern California recruited Paperny, who played on the USC varsity baseball team as a student-athlete[9] for three years, before graduating in 1997.

Upon graduating from USC, Paperny joined Merrill Lynch as a stockbroker. In 2005, Paperny became embroiled in a securities fraud scheme, which ultimately led to his criminal conviction, an 18-month federal prison term in a minimum-security prison camp. While incarcerated, Paperny recalibrated and prepared to build a career around his experiences as a former professional convicted of a white-collar crime.[10] Jordan Harbinger interviewed Paperny in a show to profile his recalibration from prison to consultant.[11]
