If you watch the recent coffeezilla, the great con artists of all time must be the 1% because the hosts didn't do their job at all, just like Michael, seriously the story here is media spewing bs even great than the OP point
The fact Michael can sit there and talk about Sam admitting to having no empathy, then turn around and defend what he did makes me rethink every piece of work he's ever done.
Spoken like a man realizing he wasted all that time writing a book praising a scumbag but couldn't bring himself to re-write the book or significantly change the direction after the facts came out. Sheesh, what a schmuck. While CBS somewhat played softball, I appreciate that they at least implied what Michael Lewis was saying, was book-selling BS.
How am I supposed to feel bad for this sociopath? You're calling crypto a fraud? this has nothing to do with crypto and everything to do about financial fraud done by a criminal. Michael Lewis still cannot admit that he was fooled.
I agree, not a genius, just had very misguided mother! Why would you treat your child like an adult? Adults have very different hormones and are highly developed. Depriving your kid of childhood is a form of abuse.
He "took him for a walk". Ok that happens, but Lewis's claim that the book has all the facts is a laughable lie. Actually, the book has exactly zero facts.
I am autistic. ASD1. What used to be called Asperger’s. I’m wondering if Sam Bankman-Fried was evaluated for autism. Here in this segment he is portrayed as a sociopath. The camera zooms in on his bouncing leg. This is stimming. He is described as looking in the mirror and learning how to look like other people. This is called masking. “He had to learn how to pretend to laugh.” Obviously he has committed a crime and this must be addressed, but this story is yet another example of how misunderstood autism is. Maybe if this person had gotten help he would not have gone down such a disastrous path. A blind person gets a cane, braille, a seeing eye dog. A person who can’t walk gets a wheelchair. Autistic people often go undiagnosed and unhelped. The struggle to fit in often suppresses empathy and facial expressions because all your energy is going into processing information, masking, fitting in. Being autistic and not knowing it is extremely difficult. So much is happening to you and around you that you cannot understand. You do not hear, think, or process information the same way that neurotypical people do. But no one can see it so you are often viewed as annoying, “lacking empathy,” “lacking emotion,” freakish, and suspect. Again, the stigma about empathy and emotion happens because the autistic person is putting a Herculean effort into trying to process information such that empathy and emotions are suppressed and diverted into a background compartment. The truth is that autistic people are often MORE empathic and emotional than neurotypicals but those traits are not VISIBLE in the moment because of the effort going into real time events. A neurotypical person’s pathway is ABCD whereas a neurodivergent person’s pathway could be A MZBYFGXRE. An autistic person can be very intelligent. An autistic person has what are called Special Interests. This is when you learn everything there is to learn about a topic. You research it and study it in depth; however, your ability to APPLY the information gained from this special interest could be affected by undiagnosed autism. I hope that this segment will be followed up with another one where there is more awareness brought to what undiagnosed autism looks like. I believe this person is being portrayed as a sociopath when in fact he might be undiagnosed autistic, in which case all his energy over many years could have been going into fitting in with society, feeling like a misfit, having a lot of intelligence with a compromised ability to apply it, and generally getting severely messed up due to the lack of diagnosis, help, support, and accommodations that are given to people who have disabilities that are visible to others.
Thank you for this enlightenment, LizaLane. You constructed your argument very well in layman's terms, which is just what's needed to achieve a broader public understanding of autism.
Lewis must be compromised as he was sympathetic and freinds with SBFs parents! He definitely is dillusional if he thinks SBF was innocent. Lewis may have lost his congnitive abilities from the death of his 19 year old daughter.
he doesnt want to admit that he fell for a pump and dump scheme same way that he is adverse to admit that moneyball only works when only a few teams do it
I hadn't considered that, but as the other comment says, he already seemed he was comopromised for money but even if for other things, roughly same basic result
you may want to check out other sources, I think the comment about sam's parents paid or maybe Michael is compromised in some other way but, don't think he fell for it, I think Michael is in on
Boy this guy was a fool to believe everything SBF was selling without even a single question.....take your book and stick it where the sun don't shine....
Lewis used to be one of my favourite writers but I had to do a 180 after his insane defence of SBF It was hard to watch and made me question the accuracy of every single book of his that I had read. Never reading anything of his ever again. What a joke.

Recap by Tammy AI
Michael when you defend a blatant monster the less objective you appear. 6:30 people now think otherwise because of your book, the writings were all over the wall. You just refused to see it.
Those are the biggest opportunists in life. They make money when the target rises in fame and money when the target folds to zero into disaster. In both scenarios they enjoy their position, sensationalism reporting and think they are super amazing. Disgraceful personalities.
What Michael Lewis is describing is a psychopath/sociopath/narcissist, NOT a Genius because he didn't invent crypto, he just built a better mouse trap to con people into. SBF even during his Sentencing Hearing won't admit real guilt or real remorse, SBF told the Judge to his face that it was a liquidity problem and he could have gotten everybody paid back - YES, it was a liquidity problem because you took all the investors' money and parked it in your account!!!!
It think Sam is one of the greatest con artists of all time. I think this interview proves that.
Nailed it!
Lewis is trying to paint a sociopath as adorable. Sickening

Michael refuses to accept he's wrong! 😂

You're calling crypto a fraud? this has nothing to do with crypto and everything to do about financial fraud done by a criminal.
Michael Lewis still cannot admit that he was fooled.
He's describing a sociopath and decidedly *not* a genius.
I agree, not a genius, just had very misguided mother!
Why would you treat your child like an adult?
Adults have very different hormones and are highly developed.
Depriving your kid of childhood is a form of abuse.
So Michael was hired by his parents, it looks like it...
100%
Lol CBS calling out Lewis was pretty funny.
yea but it was so weak that for me, almost doesn't even count
I lost all respect for Michael Lewis. He has all of Sam's facts, read the government findings Michael, you sold your soul to the devil!
Sounds like you need to read the book 🤔
He "took him for a walk". Ok that happens, but Lewis's claim that the book has all the facts is a laughable lie. Actually, the book has exactly zero facts.
Mr. Lewis could be describing my oldest child who has autism.
Michael Lewis functions as an apologist, rather than author in this book. Sorry that I bought it.
Based on his estrangement from normal human feelings, San Bankman-Fried appears to be a classic case of Asperger syndrome.
He is jewish right
“he took you for a walk”
“I’m not dumb” who’s gonna tell him?

#IConcur!!! 💯💞 #ThatscaPriBaby.
Money talks! This fool was paid by Sam.
Lewis must be compromised as he was sympathetic and freinds with SBFs parents! He definitely is dillusional if he thinks SBF was innocent. Lewis may have lost his congnitive abilities from the death of his 19 year old daughter.
he doesnt want to admit that he fell for a pump and dump scheme
same way that he is adverse to admit that moneyball only works when only a few teams do it
I hadn't considered that, but as the other comment says, he already seemed he was comopromised for money but even if for other things, roughly same basic result
How SBF Orchestrated His Public Image (FTX and Sam Bankman-Fried pt.14)
just goes to show that anyone can fall for a pump and dump scheme
you may want to check out other sources, I think the comment about sam's parents paid or maybe Michael is compromised in some other way but, don't think he fell for it, I think Michael is in on
Crappy book. This guy is making excuses for SBF, treating him like a lovable geek.
His leg was shaking all the time because he was hopped up on Adderall.
Is Lewis being sympathetic to this criminal?
Boy this guy was a fool to believe everything SBF was selling without even a single question.....take your book and stick it where the sun don't shine....
"😅Hahaha 😡 IM NOT DUMB"
Well, considered that nerve touch.
Micheal "White Wash" Lewis.
Lewis used to be one of my favourite writers but I had to do a 180 after his insane defence of SBF It was hard to watch and made me question the accuracy of every single book of his that I had read. Never reading anything of his ever again. What a joke.
If this individual doesn't spend the rest of his miserable life in prison. The Legal system is broken!
who taught you how to write a sentence? 😂
@@tb5032
Que chingados te importa! 😂. Tu eres bilingue? Yo si, como ves .. Sr. Ortografia.
Lewis missed the forest, and amazingly is still impressed by the fraudster 😅
0:33: 📉 Former billionaire and founder of FTX and Alam Research, Sam Bankman-Freed, pleads not guilty to federal charges of fraud and money laundering.
1:00: FTX became successful and Bankman-Freed realized it was a lucrative opportunity.
2:47: 🎮 The speaker describes a fascinating character who had a profound impact on the world and was an avid gamer.
2:54: The speaker recommended investing in the character's company.
3:19: The character had peculiar habits and judged everything by calculation.
5:56: 📚 The lawyer intended to present two different stories to the jury, highlighting the doubts surrounding the defendant's intent to defraud.

6:23: The book started with the lawyer taking the defendant for a walk to understand him better.
Recap by Tammy AI
trying to recast SBF is really really strange // i wonder why he's doing it
Lewis is a joke, his book is a joke and SBF is the joker
imagine now SBF trying to pretend he's a sociopath and someone really buys it
Mr Lewis you’re not doing your book sales any favors by doing interviews.
I was going to buy your book.
Not now!
All rotten eggs in one deplorable basket👁️☠️
Nonetheless, the parehts knew that SBF was breaking the law and they abetted him.
It sounds like he has Autism with a high IQ, my son is similar to the guy.
Lewis went easy on him in the book.
Michael when you defend a blatant monster the less objective you appear. 6:30 people now think otherwise because of your book, the writings were all over the wall. You just refused to see it.
Those are the biggest opportunists in life. They make money when the target rises in fame and money when the target folds to zero into disaster. In both scenarios they enjoy their position, sensationalism reporting and think they are super amazing. Disgraceful personalities.
Propaganda
SBF said it himself. He has no empathy. The philanthropy bs is a ruse,
This guy just lost all credibility.. it makes me question how accurate his previous much better book was..
No answers here. Even he can’t exploit.
3:39 So isolated, he was born with a grown up mind.
any truth to the story that a pair of Sams's cargo shorts sold for $200,000 on Ebay?
I'll have some of whatever he's smoking
Has Michael Oher sued him yet for some missing money from "The Blind Side" book? ;-P
Michael.... you were taken for a walk.
That’s a narcissist psychopath you describe him.
Gail is hot 🔥
Takes a con to know a con.
He is such a good writer
did you mean he WAS a good writer?
In short >__< Read his latest book !
So he's Asperger's.
Hans Asperger was connected to the Nazis, race hygiene, eugenics, and child euthanasia. We say ASD 1 now, not Asperger’s.
What Michael Lewis is describing is a psychopath/sociopath/narcissist, NOT a Genius because he didn't invent crypto, he just built a better mouse trap to con people into.
