This is a tale of hubris, vanity and audacity - how one man managed to accrue vast wealth by pulling the same trick twice. It’s a tale of private jets, yachts, secluded islands, suitcases bursting with cash. It’s about the collapse of Communism, the capitalist free-for-all that followed... and the creation of the oligarchs. It’s a tale of plain old human greed, lies, half-truths, deceit, double-dealing on an epic scale... and the self-delusion and gullibility of the rich - and the lengths they’re willing to go to get even richer.
