Liar's Poker

Liar's PokerLiar's Poker by Michael Lewis

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


The book starts off hilariously, then starts delving into the Wall Street business. The parts where Michael Lewis shares the anecdotes from his life as the bond salesman are the best in the book.
Few paras I had to read like 2-3 times to catch the whole meaning. Like the part where author explains about how the junk bonds were created by taking over some established firms, or the parts where mortgage bonds are explained .
Overall a great book to read if you can't get enough of Wall Street phenomenon from the movies like Wall Street and Margin Call.
