This is harbinger of full review, because, so far, I read (i.e. listen to) only the first chapter of Harry Markopolos's "No one would listen".
Well written, almost like a thriller or good detective story, is, unfortunately I could say, based on true facts, and the author was the true detective. The book describes his investigation into Bernie Madoff case and his $65 billion Ponzi scheme. What is amazing, is that for at least last 10 years, Markopolos was sending warnings, was speaking, would offer his help to SEC - but apparently no one has seriously his warnings. Why?
Failure of FCC and SEC? Bigger failure ? Maybe....
I die for listening the full book - I will do it soon ....
This is my main blog. It is about books I read, music I listen and some other interesting things I find worth to share with you ...
