Sam Bankman-Fried wasn’t just rich. Before he turned thirty he’d become the world’s youngest billionaire, making a record fortune in the crypto frenzy. CEOs, celebrities and world leaders vied for his time. At one point he considered paying off the entire national debt of the Bahamas so he could take his business there.

Then it all fell apart.

Michael Lewis was there when it happened, having got to know Bankman-Fried during his epic rise. In his new book, Going Infinite he tells us a story like no other, taking us through the mind-bending trajectory of a character who never liked the rules and was allowed to live by his own.

The global best-selling author of blockbusters like The Big Short, Flash Boys and Moneyball, Michael Lewis comes to Dublin for this very special event in conversation with David McWilliams at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Dublin.
