A millionaire many times over, financial mastermind Trevor Pepperell bought, sold and traded enormous amounts of money, gold and property in his capacity as one of London's most successful bankers. That is until circumstances landed him in jail on charges of fraud. It was during his time in prison that he developed and perfected The bottom line, thanks, in part, to some of the most devious financial minds in the world. What he invites you to experience in his game is what he actually experienced in real life. "Don't cry all the way to the bank" says Trevor, "buy it".
