Lucifer's Banker
As a private banker working for the largest bank in the world, UBS, Bradley Birkenfeld was an expert in Switzerland's shell-game of offshore companies and secret numbered accounts. He wined and dined ultrawealthy clients whose millions of dollars were hidden away from business partners, spouses, and tax authorities. As his client list grew, Birkenfeld lived a life of money, fast cars, and beautiful women, but when he discovered that UBS was planning to betray him, he blew the whistle to the US Government. The Department of Justice scorned Birkenfeld's unprecedented whistle-blowing and attempted to silence him with a conspiracy charge. Yet Birkenfeld would not be intimidated. He took his s...
Summary of Bradley C. Birkenfeld's Lucifer's Banker Uncensored
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I grew up in a castle. It was a six-bedroom house with gables, turrets, and lead-paned glass windows. It was built in the early twentieth century by a wealthy industrial baron. My father was a well-respected neurosurgeon in Boston, and my uncle was a combat veteran and adjutant general of Connecticut. #2 I had always had an itch for adventure and independence, despite the careful sculpting of my erstwhile elders. I was a avid marksman and had purchased my own Colt. 45-caliber pistol. I was parachuting out of airplanes and dragging my groaning buddies off to three-day treks in the Vermont mountains. #3 I was bored at college, so I started a movie rental business with my roommate, Beeker. We bought four VCRs, thirty movie tapes, six movie posters, and a color TV. We then measured our sitting room, went into Northfield, and bought wood paneling, hardware, wall-to-wall carpet, and three plush lounge chairs. #4 I was a senior cadet and upperclassman, and I was strong as a bull. I was never going to be a fighter pilot, and I knew it. I had to find something else I would be happy with.

Des Teufels Banker
Schweizer Nummernkonten und Offshore-Vehikel – Bradley Birkenfeld war Meister im Spiel um Millionen, die er für vermögende Kunden in den Untiefen des Schweizer Bankensystems versteckte. Für die Schweizer Großbank UBS jettete er um die Welt, traf sich mit den Schönen und Reichen und half, deren Vermögen vor den Steuerbehörden oder den Ehe- und Geschäftspartnern zu verbergen. Ein Leben wie in einem James-Bond-Film, mit schnellen Autos, attraktiven Frauen und mehr Geld, als man in einem Leben ausgeben kann. Als er Wind davon bekam, dass ihn die UBS für genau jene so lukrativen Tätigkeiten als Sündenbock opfern wollte, brach er sein Schweigen und wandte sich als Whistleblower an die...

Straight to Hell
The hilarious New York Times bestseller “sharply observes the lives of globe-trotting, overindulging investment bankers” (Entertainment Weekly). “Some chick asked me what I would do with 10 million bucks. I told her I’d wonder where the rest of my money went.” —@GSElevator For three years, the notorious @GSElevator Twitter feed offered a hilarious, shamelessly voyeuristic look into the real world of international finance. Hundreds of thousands followed the account, Goldman Sachs launched an internal investigation, and when the true identity of the man behind it all was revealed, it created a national media sensation—but that’s only part of the story. Where @GSElevator capture...
