    Ex-Trader: I Took the Fall for the Financial Crisis

    Former trader Tom Hayes was sentenced to 14 years in prison for manipulating LIBOR, which used to be one of the world's most important interest rates. Prosecutors said Tom was the ringleader of a conspiracy to influence the rate. Tom says he was made a scapegoat for the financial crisis and that what he did was commonplace. He ended up spending five and a half years in prison before being released in 2021. Then in 2025 the Supreme Court overturned his conviction. *LIBOR has now been replaced by other benchmarks. 🎉 Sponsors: Uswitch - See if you can save by switching to solar: ⁠https://makingmoney.email/uswitch⁠ Vanta - Get your company secure and compliant: ⁠https://vanta.com/makingmoney – If you purchase a product or service using one of the links above, we may receive a commission.
