Excerpt from Michael Lewis - Flash Boys

Can't post links, but if you google "ny times flash boys" and go to the first proper link, there is an excerpt from the new book

About 30 minutes of reading time here on high frequency trading. Pretty interesting stuff, although I get the impression that this book will not be as funny as Liar's Poker. What do you guys think?

I always enjoyed his books. I'm pretty sure he found an entertaining way to talk about this topic as well.

I'm talking about liquid. Rich enough to have your own jet. Rich enough not to waste time. Fifty, a hundred million dollars, buddy. A player. Or nothing. See my Blog & AMA
