Sergey Mavrodi. From Laboratory Assistant to Pharaoh of Financial Pyramids

What allowed the most remarkable criminals of modern times to achieve success? What qualities enabled them to become kings of the criminal world, and what ultimately led to their downfall?
Sergey Mavrodi is one of the most notorious fraudsters in domestic... history. The name of the "MMM" he created has become a household term in Russia for any financial "schemes." In total, around 15 million people suffered from Mavrodi's activities in our country alone, and over time he expanded his operations on an international scale. 
In 2018, Sergey Mavrodi passed away. Who was he really? A brilliant con artist? A keen observer of human nature? An ambitious and misunderstood businessman? Or just another crafty operator who rose amidst the chaos of the "wild 90s"?
This book examines Mavrodi's biography through the lens of the key principles he adhered to throughout his criminal career. These will reveal him better than any abstract discussions about character and psychology.
