Description
Funny Money by Mark Singer A cautionary tale of the Penn Square Bank, which collapsed in 1982, staggering America's banking industry. This story is told through vivid prose and continues to resonate in today's culture of corporate corruption. The bank's collapse was a result of money flowing spontaneously in boom-time Oklahoma, where nowhere else did funds move with such ease. Singer recounts the whole spectacular story and its colorful characters, making it clear what actually happened and why it had to happen. This book offers a brilliant and humorous account of the Penn Square Bank's demise, providing insight into the events that led to its collapse and their lasting impact on the financial industry.
