Was watching a show yesterday on this guy.
What I don't understand is why did he risk it all, he had made it. I know most will say greed, but I think there is much more to it, arrogance, power???
This is a guy worked from 7.00 am to 7.00 pm and expected his staff to do the same.
Fascinating story, he was born in Sri Lanka and became a billionaire during the technology boom of the 1990s and in 2009 arrested for insider trading. Estimated net worth of $1.8 billion. Now serving 11 year prison term for running biggest insider trading scheme in history.
This scandal brought down some very rich and powerful executives: former McKinsey managing director and Goldman Sachs director Raj Gupta, top IBM executive Bob Moffat, former AMD CEO and Globalfoundries chairman Hector Ruiz, and Intel Capital managing director Rajiv Goel, to name a few.
