When the Rules Are Rigged, Who's Really the Criminal?
A socially awkward math genius sits in a British prison cell, serving one of the longest white-collar sentences in UK history. His crime? Doing what everyone around him was doing-manipulating a financial benchmark that affects trillions of dollars in loans, mortgages, and investments worldwide. Tom Hayes became the face of the Libor scandal, but his story reveals something far more unsettling: what happens when an entire industry operates without a moral compass, and one person pays the price for everyone's sins. Hayes wasn't your typical Wall Street villain. He couldn't read social cues, obsessed over routines, and preferred making sausages at home to networking at fancy restaurants. Yet this unlikely character orchestrated one of finance's biggest conspiracies-not because he was uniquely evil, but because he was uniquely good at a game everyone was playing. His downfall exposes how financial systems can corrupt even the most literal-minded individuals when institutional culture normalizes the unthinkable.
