The tsunami of cheap credit that rolled across the planet between 2002 and 2008 was more than a simple financial phenomenon: it was temptation, offering entire societies the chance to reveal aspects of their characters they could not normally afford to indulge. Icelanders wanted to stop fishing and become investment bankers. The Greeks wanted to turn their country into a pinata stuffed with cash and allow as many citizens as possible to take a whack at it. The Germans wanted to be even more German; the Irish wanted to stop being Irish. Michael Lewis's investigation of bubbles beyond our shores is so brilliantly, sadly hilarious that it leads the American reader to a comfortable complacency: oh, those foolish foreigners. But when he turns a merciless eye on California and Washington, DC, we see that the narrative is a trap baited with humor, and we understand the reckoning that awaits the greatest and greediest of debtor nations.

读后感
读过《说谎者的扑克牌》作者迈克尔·刘易斯这本新书，如果让我来确定副标题，一定会用这个题目，而不是“欧洲即将沦为第三世界”。 读完《自食恶果》，再回头看看《说谎者的扑克牌》，我明白了一件事，刘易斯对了解人的兴趣一定超过赚钱的兴趣，对人性的把握一...
评分作者通过自己在冰岛、希腊、爱尔兰、德国和美国加州的亲身经历，挑选了一些大众喜闻乐见的趣闻轶事集结成册。 作者用戏谑的语气，带读者游览在各个国家的金融市场所发生的让人觉得不可思议的笑话，例如冰岛的年轻才俊借外债买外国的资产把整个国家变成一个对冲基金；希腊腐败...
评分看了爱尔兰的情况，也就明白：在2008年巴菲特花了2.44亿美元购入两间爱尔兰银行的股分，当时以为很便宜，怎料到年底市值跌至2700万美元，账面蚀近90%。当前，中国的银行股看似很便宜，其实未必便宜。

国家的性格导致不同的行为和结果很有趣
评分Michael Lewis写得最好的一本。
评分我觉得他就是趁着酒店打折的时候去欧洲旅了个游，顺大便写了这本闲扯淡的书赚几个零花钱。。。此书的核心内容显然是德意志人民的屎尿屁情结，以及施瓦辛格虽然长得跟克林顿一模一样、但却是个木有桃色新闻的正经人。。。个人认为冰岛的部分最好笑
评分bond market after all is not that different from ponzi scheme...
评分出書速度儼然已成MITSloan MR了…
