Confessions of a Wall Street Insider: A Cautionary Tale of Rats, Feds, and Banksters

The title of this book is so serious. In fact, after finished the whole book, it was a real serious issue to ponder about...

First of all, traders around the world realized that rules and regulation are ready to serve any traders when things gone wrong. However, the facts that many "good" traders ended up facing charges are happen now and then. So, what is the real justice especially when we see that money games are all over the world with better and easier route to escape...hmm...

Secondly... as a trader, the more you read on this book, the worst fears as a trader will haunt you throughout your career. One mistake not only damages your career. You could lose your freedom, family and your entire life too. Sounds scary, but true...

I am very much sympathized with the author of this book. The justice system did not provide adequate justice to him. To make things worse, the family support particularly from wife changed overnight eventually. End of the day, a simple justice system damaged a life of an ordinary human beings. Sigh...

For a full rating of 10, I am going to rate this book at 8/10. This is a book with full of excitement, emotional and tons of humor too. I appreciate the author for sharing his stories. The only flaw perhaps lies with the fact that the justice system and execution may differ in our country. As such, certain aspects may not be applied here. However, I highly recommend this book to all traders. It is a story that needs to be heard...
