The Two Million Dollar Intern

Exposure collection

De: David Gauvey Herbert

Narrado por: Neil Shah

He was a cunning Berkeley Law grad who lost his job and hatched a con. Then he got rich and ran fast on an outlandish Adderall-fueled rush of stolen cash, multiple identities, and a euphoric fantasy of success.

A Ponzi scheme was exposed, and a prominent Manhattan hedge fund imploded. Enterprising intern and financial wizard-in-training Gerti Muho saw it as an opportunity. He had insider knowledge and a knack for fraud, embezzlement, and identity theft. His steady supply of falsified prescriptions helped. Muho was on a luxury high. His luck seemed bottomless. Considering what was to come, he’d need it.

David Gauvey Herbert’s The Two Million Dollar Intern is part of Exposure, a collection of six incredible and true stories of American double lives from millionaire CEOs and suburban teens to undercover investigators and scam artists - all for whom secrets are a way of life. Each piece can be listened to in a single astonished sitting.

Con Man Intern Excelled at ID Theft

This is a fascinating account of a con man with a great deal of luck. He learned from another con man, taking advantage of the state of distress at a hedge fund firm and began a crime spree that devastated many former clients and co-workers by stealing their identities. Fortunately, he made the mistake of stealing the identity of a billionaire's son. That enabled a family with considerable resources to hunt him down and end his drug filled crime spree. It is amazing how someone who could not communicate very well could steal so much. I'm glad he was caught. A great short read. I read this book using immersion reading while listening to the audiobook. The narrator, Neil Shah sounds a great deal like Zachary Quinto.

Average Story

This was a short read, and is part of the Exposure collection (free with Amazon prime). This was just okay for me; it was well written, but I just didn't get into the story line.

interesting

why have we never heard of this before what a crazy real story I was shocked

Like Frank Abagnale only Slimy & Imprisoned

A recitation of con shenanigans that, at times, made the hair on my neck rise from the audacious malarkey the TMDI spewed. It positively stood erect when those who stood on the receiving end of his outrageous requests and/or claims bought it. The Impersonation brought a cheesy, low class vibe to the presentation — I’d leave it.

performance by narrator

narrator's voice very difgicult to sustain throughout. for me it was too high pitched, inappropriate inflections, basically challenging. way too high pitch
