The story of Lou Pai - the invisible CEO of Enron :marseykingcrown:

Most young people haven't seen it, but everyone should watch the Enron documentary, "The Smartest Guys In The Room," and read the book.

He impregnated a stripper while married, got divorced, cashed out near the peak, and left Enron before the implosion that he was largely-responsible for creating.

Because his stock-sale was divorce court-ordered, he couldn't be accused of insider trading, and got to keep most of his ill-gotten gains.

He left Enron with $250 million, married the stripper, bought a Gulfstream, and a 77,000-acre ranch (with a 14,000 ft mountain he re-named Mount Pai), making him (at the time) the second-largest landowner in Colorado.
