I'll be honest - I'm an absolute sucker for 'money' stories. I'm not talking the latest Donald Trump biography or the "how I did it story" from Richard Branson - I'm talking something much classier...
One of my all-time favourite books is Ben Mezrich's - Bringing Down the House - the true story of a bunch of MIT students working in teams using card counting to hit casino's in Vegas.
I got a copy of his latest book - Rigged - and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
The book is based loosely on the real life experiences of two young traders who work their way up the ranks in the oil trading game. As a day trader and investor, I absolutely love stories like this with big money, shady deals and dark forces trying to scupper trades.
If you're a trader and love fast, loose money then you'll know what I am talking about.
Title: Rigged
Author: Ben Mezrich
ISBN: 978-0-7475-9463-5
Rated the book 4 out of 5 and would definately recommend to any reader who loves trading and investment action stories!
