It's here!

It's been a simultaneously easier and yet more challenging road to get book two out, both from a personal and professional standpoint. I am so thrilled to share the second chapter of Dana Jefferson's journey with you all.

Book three, the final piece of "The Juggernaut Arc", is coming out in 2024. The title?

Michael’s Quotes

“It is ludicrous to believe that asset bubbles can only be recognized in hindsight,” he wrote. “There are specific identifiers that are entirely recognizable during the bubble’s inflation. One hallmark of mania is the rapid rise in the incidence and complexity of fraud…. The FBI reports mortgage-related fraud is up fivefold since 2000.” Bad behavior was no longer on the fringes of an otherwise sound economy; it was its central feature.”
― Michael Lewis, The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine
