Chapter 818 A Liar Surnamed Bogle?

(Commemorate the founder of Vanguard Fund, "Father of Index Fund" - John Bogle)

There are a lot of acquaintances tonight. In addition to first- and second-tier Hollywood stars and hosts, there are also many superstars from the sports world who came to join us. These giants who are often over 1.9 meters tall are really conspicuous in the venue.

Pass through the golden lobby, and enter the banquet hall on the right under the guidance of the welcome guests. David Ellison is wearing a sao white suit, holding his sexy female companion and standing at the door to greet people. He should be waiting for Yang Cheng to arrive , after all, the invitation letter is still in his hands.

"Hey buddy, you're going to show off again~" David Ellison saw Yang Cheng approaching, immediately put aside the people who were chatting, stepped forward to give a bear hug, and then winked at Taylor Swift, obviously, the two of them also knew each other of.

"Good evening David, I haven't seen you for a long time~" Taylor Swift was not at all moved by this level of teasing, and said hello calmly. Her role tonight is Yang Cheng's female partner, not some pop queen , not to mention that in front of David Ellison, the name of the queen is worthless.

"Good evening, beautiful Taylor. I didn't expect you to come with Jason. I was worried that this stubborn guy would go through the motions alone. I'm relieved to have you here." David said.

Yang Cheng rolled his eyes at him, and pushed him in, "Don't stand in the way~ By the way, I don't know the name of the host of today's party."

David Ellison was used to Yang Cheng's complaints, shrugged, walked two steps in, and pouted at the middle-aged fat man surrounded by a circle of people in the center of the venue, "That's him, Sandy Bogle. "

Yang Cheng didn't pay much attention to it at first, but after briefly passing the name in his mind, his pupils shrank, and he looked at David Ellison in surprise, "Is that the Bogle I know?"

Obviously, this surname reminded him of something.

David Ellison didn't show off, and nodded playfully, "It's the Bogle you thought of, otherwise you thought I would be so impulsive? Or do you think any kid who just came out of the oven has such a big appeal?"

With a flick of his hand in the air, he signaled the huge banquet hall, where hundreds of distinguished guests gathered together, the momentum was really not small.

Yang Cheng laughed out loud, it seems that tonight's party will not be boring.

Taylor, who was being held by Yang Cheng, felt the wetness of her palms, and couldn't understand the riddle they were playing, so she could only exhale into Yang Cheng's ear, "Is that Bogle special?"

Yang Cheng tilted his head and explained patiently, "Bogle itself is not a big family name, but adding John C. Jack Bogle is enough to shock others. If you haven't heard of this name, What about Vanguard? You must have heard of it, right?"

Taylor Swift's pair of ice blue eyes are usually not conspicuous, but they are particularly eye-catching under the bright lights, especially after they are endowed with emotion, they are even more addictive. If it is not for the limitation of the shape of the eyes, Thales Swift's beauty can go up a few more steps.

Blinking a pair of big surprised eyes, Meimei covered her red lips, "I didn't expect to be such a big shot~"

Instead, David Ellison sneered, "Don't be surprised, I haven't finished yet, he's just a distant relative of Bogle, it's nothing, and he's never worked at the Vanguard Fund, so I I’m really curious, how could he have the courage to offer an annualized rate of return of 12% without relying on Vanguard Fund.”

Yang Cheng pursed her lips and smiled,

"Shouldn't we find out if we go and have a look?"

After finishing speaking, he led Taylor and squeezed towards the center of the crowd. As soon as he approached, he heard that high-spirited fat man talking, as if he was telling about his past experiences?

"In 1994, I came to New York alone at the age of 24, looking for a job in public relations or journalism, but it didn't go well, and it frustrated me.

Fortunately, I have an uncle who is very well connected in the financial circle, so my mother suggested that I give him a call.

I knew nothing about Wall Street at the time, but he quickly arranged a few interviews for me.

The first one was Lehman Brothers. Their magnificent trading floor quickly fascinated me. I understood that this is the life I want, and I want to join!

Unfortunately, I didn't get an offer from Lehman, but I found a job as a sales assistant at MG Stanley.

A few years later, I was promoted all the way and was appreciated by people. Some headhunters hired me to a hedge fund company named Galen as a senior account manager, helping large clients with huge assets to invest.

I was making big commissions from private and institutional investors, and the rest of Wall Street had to grab what we had left over, and everyone wanted to do business with me and do whatever it took to get it.

do you know? At that time, I could enter and leave any restaurant and club in the country at will, and watch the finals of sports events for free.

Soon, my annual salary reached 2 million U.S. dollars, not counting dividends, and my daily job was to be taken around the country by various people. They tried their best to curry favor with me in order to get my help.

Among these activities, the "Super Bowl" tour is the most common, and private jet transfers and free of charge are the basic standards.

The craziest one was in 2002 when I was invited to a super underground party in Ohio with 40 men and an equal number of beautiful women.

I don't know if it was my cologne, but as soon as I got there, almost all the beauties tried to seduce me.

I became the star of the scene all of a sudden, and every word I said was humorous.

Of course, I found out later that everyone at the event was hired..."

Speaking of this, everyone around him burst into laughter. Obviously, this typical American humor hit Lao Mei's point of laughter.

After everyone laughed, Sandy Bogle went on to tell about his glorious history, "On this trip to Ohio, someone gave me cocaine for the first time.

To be honest, this is the first time I have come into contact with this thing. I am full of curiosity, but I dare not try it for a long time. Any fool knows what it is! Back in the 80s when I was a teenager, there was a basketball star who died from one dose of that stuff, so I always thought that any crack cocaine would kill me.

But in order not to be looked down upon, I took a little into the bathroom but didn't actually smoke it, just pretended to suck it and then threw it away.

It’s just that my friends around me were addicted to it, and I couldn’t help the constant instigation of the people around me. I finally tasted the forbidden fruit after 6 months. To be honest, this feeling is really unparalleled.

By 2006, I was spending $600-$700 a week snorting cocaine, of course, that's not including what people gave me, that stuff is sky-high prices for the average drug addict, but for me, it's the same as buying rice and noodles Same, cheap as hell, so I smoked and drank at the same time, and although I already had a girlfriend and a daughter by then, it was a dark time.
