The Final Plunge of the Market Master
The Boy Plunger, Jesse Livermore, earned that name by plunging his money all in when he sensed a win. He made a fortune betting on stocks, and then lost it all, not once, but twice. A 1923 book about his trading exploits is still popular today. Then he saw an opportunity in the market of 1929. In the plunge of the market some lost their shirts and others their lives, but he made a killing, more than a billion dollars in today's money. He is still considered a legendary trader.
But five years later he was broke, again. This time he committed suicide.
