How did the mortgage crisis and global economic meltdown REALLY occur?
A shocking literary memoir based on the author's more than ten years experience in the mortgage industry. It's the first behind the scenes account of the subprime lending disaster from a first person, boots on the ground perspective. Written under the pseudonym Richard Thorpe, this is sharp, humorous, and poignant narrative, offering a clear, and extremely personal, take on the many hidden, and heretofore unknown, factors that contributed to the crisis. Told in a style both caustic and humorous, easy and personable, with a narrative voice reminiscent of Jordan Belfort's bestselling The Wolf of Wall Street, PIMPINGMONEY exposes the outrageous actions of brokers and their loan officers, the subprime lending banks, and especially the borrowers themselves, to get mortgage loans submitted, approved, closed, and funded.
PIMPING MONEY focuses not on the actions of Wall Street's big league power players, but rather on the heretofore under-Explored actions and responsibilities of the Main Street money men and their clients.
