Ugly Americans: The True Story of the Ivy League Cowboys Who Raided the Asian Markets for Millions | |
John Malcolm was the ultimate gunslinger in the Wild East, prepared to take on any level of risk in making mind-boggling sums of money. He and his friends were hedge-fund cowboys, living life on the adrenaline-, sex-, and drugs-fueled edge—kids running billion-dollar portfolios, trading information in the back rooms of high-class brothels and at VIP tables in nightclubs across the Far East.
Malcolm and his Ivy League-schooled twenty-something colleagues, with their warped sense of morality, created their own economic theory that would culminate in a single deal the likes of which had never been seen before—or since.
Ugly Americans is a story of extremes, charged with wealth, nerve, excess, and glamour. A real-life mixture of Liar's Poker and Wall Street, brimming with intense action, romance, underground sex, vivid locales, and exotic characters, Ugly Americans is the untold true story that rocked the financial community.

It was definitely an interesting read. If you wanna fantasize about this life, the book will definitely do the trick. But it hasn't much to offer beyond that. Not particularly perceptive and doesn't quite live up to the suspense it builds throughout the text. The main character isn't as loveable as he's supposed to be because of his basic, superman-like, unrealistic personality. He's the carbon copy hero and that's boring
Also a side note, it's clear he didn't do his research on Princeton. No one ever refers to "the school newspaper" or says any eating club by its full name
I am biased because I really like this author's other works The reason why I enjoy his other works is that they bring you into a world that you may not necessarily see in your everyday happenings. The book brings you into a world where high earning individuals ade both young and reckless. It captures a snapshot in time where eastern markets were exploited for the benefits of the few and it really highlights how fast money influences activities in a world where Westerners are far away from home.
