The Money Trap: Lost Illusions Inside the Tech Bubble by Alok Sama

[Xerxes]

Wanted to throw this in as well since folks are talking about SoftBank in another thread. This book was written last year by the former CFO of SoftBank. It is short and fun read. I think really well written. Covers a lot transaction that he was involved in and gives his candid opinion. Talks about the power dynamics in the SoftBank group etc.

 

Highly recommend. I finished it early in January.

I came across this book, while listening to an interview with the author on podcast. Link below.
