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.
##一边练健身环一边草草听完。故事本身很精彩,简直匪夷所思,书写的太冗长,有声书读得也特别客观(干巴巴)。不如读篇精简版的报道就好了
评分##精彩程度堪比华尔街之狼+了不起的盖兹比...然而Jho Low至今依然逍遥法外、相比美国陷阱中锒铛入狱的法国高管,只能感叹这个世界的可笑
评分##刘特佐作为一个典型的白手套,并没有直接从政府里贪污或盗窃财产,而是采用了更高明的手段,借用国家信用和国际金融体系,在灰度中游走,里应外合,满足领导人的政治和个人诉求,用钱驱动高盛,商业银行,中东主权基金等各个利益方,大肆为自己敛财,花钱通过演艺明星和社交名流得到名气,事发后又巧妙利用地缘政治争取生存空间,一部侧面反映掮客的好书,推荐对政商勾结有兴趣的读者阅读
评分##前面写Low的花天酒地实在太多了,看多了也很无聊。大概从出事开始,才略有些精彩。小李的名字无数次出现,看来顶流在哪都让人忍不住多写……归还了赠予,捧得了小金人,HE啊!另外没想到除了萧亚轩很神奇地出现,在结尾,张靓颖也拥有了名字!
