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.
##用精彩來描述詐騙實在是讓人唏噓。和Bad Blood相似的是背後華爾街大所不甚光彩的錶現

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##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##寫得可以,隻是這種駭人聽聞的詐騙案,尤其是其中的貪婪、投機、勾結等等,看起來難受,看完瞭也隻能唏噓。
