In 2009, a chubby, mild-mannered graduate of the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business named Jho Low set in motion a fraud of unprecedented gall and magnitude--one that would come to symbolize the next great threat to the global financial system. Over a decade, Low, with the aid of Goldman Sachs and others, siphoned billions of dollars from an investment fund--right under the nose of global financial industry watchdogs. Low used the money to finance elections, purchase luxury real estate, throw champagne-drenched parties, and even to finance Hollywood films like The Wolf of Wall Street.
By early 2019, with his yacht and private jet reportedly seized by authorities and facing criminal charges in Malaysia and in the United States, Low had become an international fugitive, even as the U.S. Department of Justice continued its investigation.
BILLION DOLLAR WHALE has joined the ranks of Liar's Poker, Den of Thieves, and Bad Blood as a classic harrowing parable of hubris and greed in the financial world.
##騙子拿錢投資華爾街之狼,想想就很諷刺。
評分##最後還是看得電子書。挺好看的,但是感覺可以縮減成一篇長篇報導⋯沒必要這麼長的篇幅,因為裡麵很多東西都是非常客觀的,沒太多必要花這麼多筆墨來描寫,而且jho low的富裕是光靠描寫中的能描寫齣來的嗎,應該拍成美劇或者電影⋯ 看到最後在徵收財產的時候我在想,這些錢都是馬來西亞的錢的話那美國豈不是賺到瞭?馬來西亞真是虧死瞭⋯ 以及最後查到najib身上,他強行close案子,殺瞭個人,抓瞭幾個,幸好換瞭一個新總理纔把najib搞下去釘死也挺魔幻現實的。想想換在其他不能換的國傢可咋整?
評分膽大妄為,很多細節看得讓人目瞪口呆。認識其中一個配角,有種親曆曆史的感覺...
評分##像一般的金融調查故事一樣有點拖遝冗長。還是想給四分齣於兩個主要原因,一個是涉及投行業務的部分想到日常工作心有戚戚焉,另外一個是難得裏麵涉及不少我認識的明星感覺有點親切
評分##劉特佐作為一個典型的白手套,並沒有直接從政府裏貪汙或盜竊財産,而是采用瞭更高明的手段,藉用國傢信用和國際金融體係,在灰度中遊走,裏應外閤,滿足領導人的政治和個人訴求,用錢驅動高盛,商業銀行,中東主權基金等各個利益方,大肆為自己斂財,花錢通過演藝明星和社交名流得到名氣,事發後又巧妙利用地緣政治爭取生存空間,一部側麵反映掮客的好書,推薦對政商勾結有興趣的讀者閱讀
評分##哇,撐死膽大的。好精彩的周末讀物!
