Bernie Madoff is getting the headlines now but the original scam artist was a short, energetic, well-dressed Italian immigrant named Carlo Ponzi. The awesome biography Ponzi's Scheme tells the story of how he built a huge fortune by scamming half of early 20th Century Boston. I am half way through the book and loving it. Back in the day, Italians, Irish, and Jews really knew how to hustle! You can buy a copy on Amazon.
