Summary:
Before he was old enough to drink, he had bank accounts, a Ferrari, a mansion, a multi-million dollar corporation, and a desperate little secret--it was all a lie. Most of us can't imagine life getting much worse than it got for Barry Minkow, the one-time Wall Street wiz kid who catapulted his company to stardom and success only to see it exposed as a $300-million fraud. After spending more than seven years in federal prison and coming out owing victims $26 million, his career changed from FBI target to FBI trainer, from CEO to senior pastor, from con man to con catcher. More than a decade from defrauding investors, today, as cofounder of the Fraud Discovery Institute, he's uncovered over a billion dollars worth of investment scams.--From publisher description.
