Sometimes the bad guys get away. Great insight into the trading life. Pinky got set. I wanna trade metals now.

Intriguing and exciting read. So much money, so much stress and so much loss. The more you make the more you loose (but what you really loose is good friends and family). Can you live a happy and friendly life ...

The creativity of Rich

Brought back to the public theatre because of the death of this exiled gazillionaire... this concise treatise give you the impact of Marc Rich. I would have liked to hear both sides though, there is always two sides, and for that reason dropped it to three stars.

Used to work against and later on for Mr.Rich in early '90 in Russia. He was extremely creative for deals and took high risks that were benefited in profits. Actualy, the book is written in rather agressive way against Mr. Rich; however, it worth to read because it reflelects the spirit of commodity trading in that period.

a classic book about wall st sheganigans, a classic and a must read for everyone involved in world of finance

A must read....

It was well researched. It is also very interesting. Though it is captivating the way the story unfolds is rather straightforward.

Book as described or better

Zwar etwas alt das Buch und endet zeitig 1986, aber alles im allen für jeden Händler interessant. Nicht umsonst wird Marc Rich als einer der größten Händler seiner Zeit in der Rohstoff Szene verehrt. Ein Genius sowie Vollbluthändler und eine schöne Wochenend Lektüre.

Top top it reminds me of when I was a metal dealer in London and on occasions the company I dealt for traded with Marc richs company

Fictional more than Factual.As Mr Copetas mentions, Marc Rich brushed him away, refusing to meet him resulting in a biast,grudge against Marc Rich (not so professional in my opinion)Still 'A fun to read'.I still believe "King of Oil" is a far better book if you want a better insight of Marc Rich
