Book excerpt: Honey loves running her bar and grill, catering to humans and shifters alike. But there are two things that dim her love of the place: cocky assholes who think they own the world, and cocky assholes who think they can flex their muscles and wreck her bar when throwing a temper tantrum. Unfortunately, the drop-dead gorgeous, hotter than hot, shifter man she secretly loves is both. Blake wants the curvaceous, gorgeous Honey in his bed. Now. He's lusted (but not loved, let's get that straight) after the luscious woman for months. True, he looks like a bad-boy biker mixed with a player and, yeah, he's broken a few things in her bar... But only because the guys were hitting on his girl. With no hope of winning her over in sight, he does what any red-blooded werehedgehog would do in his position. He lies.

Download or read book Hedge Hogs written by Barbara T. Dreyfuss and published by Random House. This book was released on 2013-05-21 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For readers of The Smartest Guys in the Room and When Genius Failed, the definitive take on Brian Hunter, John Arnold, Amaranth Advisors, and the largest hedge fund collapse in history At its peak, hedge fund Amaranth Advisors LLC had more than $9 billion in assets. A few weeks later, it completely collapsed. The disaster was largely triggered by one man: thirty-two-year-old hotshot trader Brian Hunter. His high-risk bets on natural gas prices bankrupted his firm and destroyed his career, while John Arnold, his rival at competitor fund Centaurus, emerged as the highest-paid trader on Wall Street. Meticulously researched and character-driven, Hedge Hogs is a riveting fly-on-the-wall account of the largest hedge fund collapse in history: a blistering tale of the recent past that explains our precarious present . . . and may predict our future. Using emails, instant messages, court testimony, and exclusive interviews, securities analyst turned investigative reporter Barbara T. Dreyfuss charts the colliding paths of these two charismatic traders who dominated the speculative energy market. We follow Brian Hunter, the Canadian farm boy and elbows-out high school basketball star, as he achieves phenomenal early success, only to see his ambition, greed, and hubris precipitate his downfall. Set in relief is the journey of John Arnold, whose mild manner, sophisticated tastes, and low profile belied his own ferocious competitive streak. As the two clash, hundreds of millions of dollars in pension and endowment money is imperiled, with devastating public consequences. Hedge Hogs takes you behind closed doors into the shadowy world of hedge funds, the unregulated wild side of finance, where over-the-top parties and lavish perks abound and billions of dollars of other people’s money are in the hands of a tiny elite. Dreyfuss traces the rise of this freewheeling industry while detailing the decades of bank, hedge fund, and commodity deregulation that turned Wall Street into a speculative casino. A gripping saga peppered with fast money, vivid characters, and high drama, Hedge Hogs is also an important and timely cautionary tale—a vivisection of a financial system jeopardized by reckless practices, watered-down regulation, and loopholes in government oversight, just waiting for the next bust. Praise for Hedge Hogs “Regulators, legislators and judges inclined to sympathize with the industry ought to rush out and buy a copy of Barbara Dreyfuss’s Hedge Hogs, a wonderfully instructive tale about Amaranth Advisors. . . . Dreyfuss, a Wall Street analyst turned investigative journalist, not only plowed through what turned out to be a treasure trove of official records and transcripts, but supplemented it with plenty of her own reporting. She manages to organize it all into a tight, riveting and understandable yarn.”—The Washington Post “Clearly and entertainingly told . . . a salutary example of how traders who believe they are super-smart might be nothing more than lucky, and how there is nothing so intoxicating as the ability to speculate with other people’s money.”—The Economist “[Dreyfuss] does a great job of putting Amaranth’s out-of-control trader into historical context, explaining the blitz of deregulation that set the stage for someone like Hunter to do maximum damage.”—Bloomberg “The definitive take on the largest hedge fund collapse in history . . . You will not be able to put it down.”—Frank Partnoy, author of F.I.A.S.C.O. and Infectious Greed Named One of the Top 10 Business & Economics Books of the Season by Publishers Weekly

Download or read book Hedging Your Bets written by Jayne Denker and published by St. Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 2024-01-09 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Opposites attract in this enemies-to-lovers romantic comedy of feuding neighbors and dueling hearts from Jayne Denker, the author of The Rom-Com Agenda. When small-town neighbors go head-to-head, better start Hedging Your Bets. Gillian has been happily divorced for several years and, after trying a few dating apps, prefers to stay that way. Navigating her way through dates with fat shamers and lackluster men has left her with no desire to do anything other than work in her garden in her spare time. Who needs rude comments and awkward first-date conversation when soft roses and vibrant tulips are so much better? Noah West has just moved to Willow Cove. After a rough breakup that leaves him looking to get far away, he relocates to the same small town he spent summers in as a teen—and moves right next door to Gillian. A big believer in minimalist design and that the best kind of plants are non-flowering, he knows as soon as he meets his neighbor that they are going to clash on just about everything. Now if only he could keep his eyes off her too. That might be helpful. When a gardening contest brings out the competition in Gillian and Noah, dueling plant arrangements and fiery banter ensues. But is it possible that beneath all their differences, they might just be perfect for each other?

Download or read book Binary Options written by Hamish Raw and published by Harriman House Limited. This book was released on 2011-05-20 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Binary options are the latest products to hit financial markets. From 5 minute FTSE100 bets offered by online bookmakers, longer duration FTSE100 bets traded on online betting exchanges plus binary bets offered by spreadbetting companies, all are offering the same instrument as the CBOT's binary option on the Fed Funds rate. Hitherto, the largest single marketplace for binary options has been Lloyd's of London where they are known as insurance contracts, while the sports enthusiast is unwittingly buying a binary option every time he takes a price from a sportsbook or bookmaker on this horse or that soccer team. This book takes the same fixed odds bet and illustrates how they operate in the financial marketplace."Binary Options" initially outlines regular bets and explains the rationale defining some basic winning and losing bets. A deeper analysis follows in which the author examines how the value of a bet is dependant on the passing of time, the volatility of the underlying instrument plus the price of the underlying instrument. More advanced bets are introduced with the reader then being shown when and how to profitably use binaries in various market conditions, followed by techniques in how to hedge the position entered into. The same format for regular bets is then followed when discussing one-touch bets. In this first in-depth analysis of binary options, Hamish Raw has ambitiously catered for both the end-user and the market-maker. Diagrams are to be found in abundance throughout this book in order to graphically illustrate the author's points.

Book excerpt: The 'Father of Greater New York' is dead. Shot outside his Park Avenue mansion in the year of our Lord, 1903. In the hour of his death, will the truth of his life finally break free? Born to a struggling farming family in 1820, Andrew Haswell Green was a self-made man who reshaped Manhattan, built Central Park and turned New York into a modern metropolis. Now, at eighty-three, when he thought the world could hold no more surprises, he is murdered. As the detective assigned to the case traces his ghost across the city, other spectres appear: a wealthy courtesan; a broken-hearted man in a bowler hat; and an ambitious politician, Samuel, whose lifelong friendship was a source of joy and frustration. In a life of industry and restraint, where is the space for love? As restlessly inventive and absorbing as its protagonist, The Great Mistake is the story of a city, and a singular man, transformed by longing.
Book Synopsis The Baccarat Two-Sided Strategy (BTSS) by : Stephen Tabone
Download or read book The Baccarat Two-Sided Strategy (BTSS) written by Stephen Tabone and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-05-08 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Baccarat Two-Sided Strategy (BTSS) is one of the safest ways to wager real money in the game of Baccarat. This strategy will protect your bankroll using hedging tactics whilst still making it possible to gain an edge over the disordered nature of Banker and Player outcomes, so you can stand a good chance of leaving a Shoe with your bankroll in a winning state. This strategy is hedge-based which means up until the point when one of the Sides is no longer bet on, the dual power of betting on Two-Sides will not expose your bankroll to risk of loss. You might ask how it is still possible to win when betting on both Sides. It is possible, and, in this book, I will show you how and explain why the strategy works. Moreover, profits can be extended, and I cover how in the Tweaks chapter. Not only have I tested, retested and tweaked BTSS to its optimum in-game play, I, and my assistants have tried it out in bricks and mortar casinos with good results. After developing this strategy, when we first tested it out in a brick and mortar casino in London, England, a Baccarat player raised an eyebrow as he saw how many chips we stacked up Shoe after Shoe. He had no clue how this was possible. The dealer and his jaw dropping supervisor knew we were playing a strategy but did not know the rules of it. When we were losing on some Shoes he was amazed at how we could recover and on many of the Shoes, go back into profit thus proving the power of the strategy. It feels like plain sailing when you are winning with ease and they cannot work out how. Can a strategy that bets on both Sides in the same Shoe really work? Surely wagering on the Two Sides ensures failure. Well let's put it this way. When you start to bet in a new Baccarat Shoe, the first few outcomes, there are few outwardly signs to suggest any dominance between the Bank Side and Player Side. In most Shoes, on average, both seem to be neck and neck. Yet one Side, within its inanimate objective, through the combination of the shuffled and cut cards, will at some stage during a Shoe surge ahead of the other Side.If I were to ask you to say which Side will dominate a Shoe you really could not say other than looking for subtle signs that for the most part are signs that are in flux. By the time you might have hit upon what you might believe to be a solid sign you have lost your chance to profit from it since the trend would have faded or will begin to. Baccarat is all smoke and mirrors, the game seems simple, yet gamblers find it difficult to secure long term profits and their decisions as to what Side to bet on turns out to be a complex process. In this book, I show you how to avoid the 'dance of the Sides' that get you guessing so that you can bet in a sophisticated rule-based manner to make gains and make those gains from both Sides. I have done all the hard work of observing the behaviour of the Two Sides; the Banker Side and the Player Side. I have analysed many hundreds of Shoe results, patterns and trends and many thousands of Banker and Player outcomes. I am a casino games professional pattern player and outcomes systemiser. I work on what makes games tick and investigate how outcomes form so bettors can profit from the weaknesses I discover in the way Baccarat Shoe outcomes playout in the forming of patterns and trends. I also consider betting structures in relation to casino odds and wagering tactics that bettors are able make. As an example of my work, I wrote the bestselling Baccarat book title, The Ultimate Golden Secret Baccarat Winning Strategy 3.0 The strategy in that book stands as one of the best Baccarat strategies in the world. Moreover, it is very useful for high rollers.
Download or read book No Nonsense written by Joey Barton and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-09-22 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE CROSS SPORTS BOOK AWARDS AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF THE YEAR The Sunday Times bestseller is 'brilliant, gripping, beautifully written, real,' says Jonathan Northcroft. So, you think you know Joey Barton. Think again. No Nonsense is the raw yet redemptive story of a man shaped by rejection and the consequences of his mistakes. He has represented England, and been a pivotal player for Manchester City, Newcastle United, Queens Park Rangers, Marseille, Burnley and Glasgow Rangers, but his career has featured recurring controversy. The low point of being sent to prison for assault in 2008 proved to be the catalyst for the re-evaluation of his life. Barton reveals the formative influences of a tough upbringing in Liverpool, gives a survivor’s insight into a game which, to use his phrase, 'eats people alive' and speaks frankly about the gambling addiction that has left him facing a hefty ban. In addition to dealing with his past, he also expands on his plans for the future, and explains how he has redirected his energies since the births of his children. Candid, challenging, entertaining and intelligent, No Nonsense, is the game-changing autobiography that redefines the most fascinating figure in British football.
