具体描述
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.

##像一般的金融调查故事一样有点拖沓冗长。还是想给四分出于两个主要原因，一个是涉及投行业务的部分想到日常工作心有戚戚焉，另外一个是难得里面涉及不少我认识的明星感觉有点亲切
##大马前总理的白手套盗国的故事，约会萧亚轩，米兰达可儿，与李奥纳多合作出品华尔街之狼，如此juicy的故事写得像流水账，这届华尔街日报记者不行
##有一种预感就是我老板认识书中主角，于是问Jho Low认识不？老板说这书开头讲的女盛体派对他当时就在现场哇，书里各个bankers他也全认识。啧啧啧 #魔幻现实人生
##千萬別惹財經調查記者。

##千萬別惹財經調查記者。
胆大妄为，很多细节看得让人目瞪口呆。认识其中一个配角，有种亲历历史的感觉...
##写得可以，只是这种骇人听闻的诈骗案，尤其是其中的贪婪、投机、勾结等等，看起来难受，看完了也只能唏嘘。
