Going Rogue
He flipped for the FBI. Then he turned the wire on them. A true financial-crime memoir from the Wall Street informant who never got convicted of anything.
Bro, I'm Going Rogue
by Guy Gentile · Paperback · Kindle
The Wall Street informant who double-crossed the FBI. Guy Gentile built trading firms and an offshore broker-dealer that moved billions in order flow, made and lost fortunes on the tape, and then woke up one morning to a knock at the door. What followed was thirty-one months of cooperation, a body wire, a leak, an indictment that took nine years to answer, and a Miami jury that walked him out in less than a day.
It's a dramatized memoir — his memory, his voice, his version. Scotch, subpoenas, private jets, federal fluorescent lighting, and the hum of a Bloomberg terminal at 3:47 in the morning when your whole life is about to go one way or the other. Told with the same rhythm as the trades: fast, funny, and unsentimental.
Inside the book
The Paper Route
Mount Vernon, eleven years old, up before the sun. Where the wiring started — justice, loyalty, competition, freedom, protection.
Level Two
A walk-in trainee at a Manhattan prop shop learning to read order flow before he learned to read people.
Bahamas Flag
Building a broker-dealer offshore, answering the phone when nobody else would, and moving real institutional order flow.
The Knock
The morning the government showed up — and the impossible choice that followed.
Wired
Restaurants, hotel rooms, and dumb-guy questions. What it actually feels like to sit across from men trying to teach you how to break the law.
The Verdict
Newark, San Juan, Miami. Nine years of federal pressure, one trial, and a jury that took less than a day.
Who it's for
For readers of The Wolf of Wall Street, Catch Me If You Can, Black Edge, and Billion Dollar Whale — and for anyone who wants to know what cooperating with the federal government actually costs. Nineteen chapters, three interludes, and an epilogue that settles the ledger. For the record: Guy Gentile has never been convicted of a crime.
