"Finders Keepers: The Story of a Man Who Found $1 Million" by Mark Bowden
How to loose $1.2 million in one week
Some of you may have seen the movie “Money for Nothing” with John Cusack. Some of you may even like it. The movie is partially based on the true account of Joey, a Pennsylvania drug addict, who back in the early 1980’s caught a brake in life. He found $1.2 million that fell off a truck and over the course of a week managed to loose most of it, before getting caught by FBI. Apart from the incredible luck this man had, nothing else is much interesting about what happened with him. Readers of the book will find out the numerous stupid choices he makes in an effort to keep the money. Bottom line – the book is interestingly written, but the story is ridiculous and doesn’t deserve the time it takes to read it.
