Summary: An Eye-0pening Book
Comment: "King of Capital" is a must read for every investor who wants to learn more about how to be "Wall Street Smart," and how to chose effectively and honestly managed companies. Sandy Weill's clear vision, while not always apparent to those who work with him, becomes very apparent to the readers of this intriguing, reader friendly, and well-researched book by Stone and Brewster. Sandy is smart, competitive, and clean. How he became "King of Captial" should inspire future corporate leaders as they embark on their journeys which will be under closer scrutiny than ever before. However, even if you are not an investor or future CEO, this timely book is packed full of so much information about the deal makers of past few decades, that it makes for thoroughly enjoyable reading for those who desire just to be informed.

Summary: Dealmaker
Comment: Sandy Weill's story make for a good read. The dealmaker produced much larger, much more efficient and profitable business by successfully merging with one new company after another - all the while swallowing a company larger than his current. After leaving American Express, many would have though his CEO days were over. The story of the building of Citigroup is fascinating. By beginning with a troubled company, he turned it around and began the acquisition game again. When Travellers and Citicorp merged to form Citigroup it was a personal triumph for Sandy. The story in the book ends with Sansy still in charge at Citigroup and leaves the readear wondering the future hold for boy Weill and his company. Those stockholders who tagged along for the ride with Mr. Weill were very well rewarded.
