Description from Amazon.Com : "A place where billions of dollars trade hands every week, the Merc is like a casino on crack, where former garbage men become millionaires overnight and where fistfights break out on the trading floor."
"This ordinary kid has traded Brooklyn for the gold-lined hotel palaces of Dubai. He keeps company on the decks of private yachts in Monte Carlo-teeming with half-naked girls flown in by Saudi sheiks-and makes deals in the dangerous back alleys of Beijing. But the Merc is just a starting place. Rigged: The True Story of an Ivy League Kid Who Changed the World of Oil, from Wall Street to Dubai
"Taken under the wing of another young gun and partnering with a mysterious young Muslim, the kid embarks on a dangerous adventure to revolutionize the oil trading industry-and, along with it, the world.”
