Mr Lewis worked as a bond salesman for Salomon Brothers in New York and London. He holds degrees from Princeton (if i am not wrongly, major in history of fine arts) and the London School of Economics
The Money Culture takes us on an uproarious ride through the most outrageous and turbulent era in the financial markets since the crash of '29.
Michael Lewis, whose Liar's Poker foreshadowed events at Salomon Brothers, instructs us in the moral codes of Donald Trump, Leona Helmsley, Ivan Boesky and sundry luminaries. He conducts a tour through the 1980s world of high finance in chapters like "When Bad Things Happen to Rich People," "Why You Should Leave Home Without It: The Growing Absurdity of the American Express Card" and "The Difference Between Milken's Morals and Ours." It is a trip we are not soon to forget.
With devastating wit and a flair for unveiling the smoke and mirrors of high finance, Lewis takes a new look at many of the most influential and devastating episodes of the get-rich-quick decade.
