Bruck tells the story of the junk bond dealers and the fabulous deals they made. The junk bond market was created by Milken just as the hostile takeover financed by junk bonds was a Milken creation. Corporate raiders came into being with Milken at the head. Milken always did it his way, no matter what the rules were. He always charged his customers premium prices but he always came through for them. They were willing to pay in order to use his services and finances.
