Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Eisman had a special talent for making noise and breaking with consensus opinion.

He knew that everyone thought of him as a character, but he didn't think of himself that way. #4 Eisman was a curious character, and he had walked onto Wall Street at the very beginning of a curious phase. The creation of the mortgage bond market had extended Wall Street into a place it had never been before: the debts of ordinary Americans.
