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.
##用精彩来描述诈骗实在是让人唏嘘。和Bad Blood相似的是背后华尔街大所不甚光彩的表现

评分##【2020读书计划•009】八卦不少,这事到现在都没完呢。海边和萧亚轩浪漫的约会,米兰达可儿的男朋友,出事后还在曼谷给张靓颖(Jane Zhang应该是她吧)庆生,最后试图找绿地集团接盘未果……
评分##一个马来西亚人Jho Low 在马来西亚前首相纳吉撑腰下,勾结各种官商,空手套白狼(更甚是空手盗国)的故事,里面的情节只会比crazy rich asian更嚣张。跟莱昂纳多成为朋友,投资了电影华尔街之狼,约会希尔顿大小姐、萧亚轩、米兰达可儿,生日会请到各种大牌明星,来往于纽约、洛杉矶、吉隆坡、新加坡等地,甚至失势之后还可以自由来往泰国和中国(张靓颖还在他生日会上给他唱了生日歌?)有钱能使鬼推磨啊!
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!
评分##投行贪婪律所邪恶,政客赚得口袋满满,对FCPA有了更深刻的认识。同时萧亚轩米兰达可儿和小李子这种人其实也算是某种程度上的共犯,你不能一边享受着脏钱带来的快乐一边装无辜呀。前天看到Low和DOJ settle了civil lawsuit,不知道未来的criminal会是什么走向... (写作层面而言我觉得作者用了太多没必要的插入语,倒装句,读起来比较吃力,叙述节奏在最后半段也有点拖拉,讲金融那块很多东西也没讲清楚,不过总体可读性还好吧
