In a Car Made of Dynamite, Racing Towards the Sun

For a front row seat in the heart of Wall Street during one of the most unpredcented times of recent financial history..the dot.com boom..you are caught up in the rollercoaster world of the sheer craziness of human emotions greed and fear ..in this part 1 of 2 books..it’s the unbelievable returns and profits that were being made .Great characters and nothing held back in this great account of what it was like to be right in the middle of it all.

The Fly is like a demented, crass, and far less successful Jesse Livermore. Furthermore, due to having a family, and needing to provide for them with love and money, his tiny black heart has zero capacity for extending any shred of caring about his fellow Man. This may be be due to his occasionally-mentioned unfortunate and apparently unexamined childhood. Or, just an excuse. Still, his saving grace is his intelligent and dry humor. So, at least there's that.

I have been following The Fly on iBankCoin for a long time now. Fly provides a unique perspective and true wit in all of his writings. This book is no different. Being as mysterious as he is on his own website, the book offers a window into his life and earlier trading days. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in trading.

This is an excellent book that perfectly illustrates how to be a God of banking coin. Multiple copies of this book deserve to be sitting next to your literature on auction theory, volatility pricing, equity fundamentals, books by Fabozzi on fixed income, by Taleb on tail-risk, and the classic Michael Lewis books highlighting Wall Street's BSD culture of grand hubris.

Grab an iced cold beverage and a Tootsie Roll and enjoy the ride. 9 out of 10 CEO's have selected this as one of their 60 books to read this year, it's that good. Many of the stories will be familiar to regular readers of The Fly's website, but here they have been collected and distilled, not sanitized.

Quick, easy, good story. Classic Fly. I'll be buying the next part when it's released. I'm interested to see if and how the blog creeps into the story.

The writing was middling. Believably of the characters salvaged a rather under-developed story. Dragged a bit, and the story needed more background. It was a quick, coloful read, good for passing the time in a sideways market. I downloaded it for free- only way I would procure a copy.

Broker A, a true financial parvenu delivers a robust account of coming of age in the dot.com renaissance. Will he push old men down sewers or will he be incinerated in a fireball of greed and madness?

Great quick read. The Fly is hilarious. As someone who joined the industry in 2010. I found this to be a very interesting perspective on the lead up to the bursting of the tech bubble

"Le Fly" Has a twisted sense of humor, the kind I can relate to.Buy this book if you have any interest in the financial markets.
