Just as Watergate was the defining political story of its time, so Enron is the biggest business story of our time. And just as All the President’s Men was the one Watergate book that gave readers the full story, with all the drama and nuance, The Smartest Guys in the Room is the one book you have to read to understand this amazing business saga.
在2001年前,安然看起来是一个如此伟大的公司,伟大到永不可能失败:美国第七大公司,连续六年被《财富》杂志评为最具有创新力公司,触角深入白宫。竞争者畏惧它,分析师赞美它,投资者尊敬它,监管者称许它。 伟大的公司有伟大的错误,这个纸牌堆起来的王国在倾刻之间宣告破产...
評分正如作者在按语里说的,这本书其实是关于人的故事,“安然传奇是一个关于人性弱点的故事,是关于人性中的傲慢、贪婪和狂妄无知的故事;是任由野心胡作非为的故事……是一些精明人士自以为下一次赌博可以掩盖他们上一次灾难的故事——而且这些人没有承认他们是错的”。 ...
評分I have to say it's one of the best, if not the best. By digging through the exciting/quick rise, gradual corruption, and at last the seemly all-of-a-sudden collapse, this book reveals before you the intriguing life inside a giant company, human greed and bl...

Long overdue reading. Enron is a tragedy of a leading innovative company unconscious seeking failure by pursuing success in the extremely wrong way and finally get what it deserves. It was about greed, outsized egos, bad governance, bad luck and smart people doing stupid things. An even greater tragedy, though, lies in the LTCM-Enron-Lehman series.
评分剛看完第十一章,真是觸目驚心。在利益麵前,華爾街的投資銀行們錶現的和房市高泡沫時追漲的散戶差不多:知道真正估值沒這麼高,知道裏麵有欺詐。但沒關係,隻要我不是接最後一棒的就好。The smartest guys in the room. The title says all.
评分看完Bad Blood之後看這本,感覺何其相似。前半部分真是。。good old days,有錢大傢賺。後麵大廈崩塌的時候真是樹倒猢猻散。聽Audio book十分有感覺,大概是有點偵探小說意味,財務會計相關詞匯也能理解。覺得最神奇的就是真的有幾個拿瞭很多錢因為政治鬥爭失敗離開的,但是之後再看真是太幸運瞭,否則都得進監獄。還有個亞洲人,超級神秘,拿瞭好多錢最後沒進監獄,還在科羅拉多買瞭山和農場,NB。
评分hedging the risks from pricing, delivery, credit and so on
评分還好瞭
