Madmen and Lunatics

For a few years at the beginning of this millennium, the commercial real estate industry experienced a moment.  It was an absurd moment, because the world had lost its mind. 

This is Daniel Keen's honest recounting of his first years out of college, when events conspired to take him on a journey beyond anything he had ever imagined to be possible. 

This is a tale of absurdity, of heightened sentiments and disillusionment in equal measure, a tale of tech millionaires and industrialists trying to become real estate developers, of princesses and hot dog capitalists, of celebrity-punching barbarians and dice-rolling felons, of verbal thuggery and psychedelic presentations.  It is a memoir about a special era in the human experience.
