Michael Lewis’ AIG Article in Vanity Fair: The Man Who Crashed the World

Here’s an excellent read in Vanity Fair from noted author Michael Lewis regarding the madness that is AIG. His piece is entitled ‘The Man Who Crashed the World.’ There has been a slew of intriguing journalistic pieces hitting the tabloids lately and its refreshing to see. Just last week, we brought you Matt Taibbi’s piece on Goldman Sachs as well.

Below is the embedded AIG article. RSS & Email readers will need to come to the blog to view it. Again, our apologies for using Scribd as we know many of you dislike it. However, the other alternatives we have tried out have not been any better. As such, we are stuck using the lesser of many evils. If you need the actual .pdf of this article please let us know and we’ll do our best to meet all the requests (we were inundated with requests for the GS article last week and are still sifting through all those!) Don’t try to print the article directly from Scribd as it will mess up the margins and come out illegible. We recommend clicking on the Scribd logo, going to their page and selecting the ‘download’ option which will let you save the .pdf to your desktop. Do note that you’ll need a free account there to do this.
