In business, attention is leverage.
A strong personal brand turns ideas into influence.
Influence becomes opportunity.
Without it, even the smartest ideas get lost in the noise.

Sarao exposed a broken financial system.
Wall Street firms had been spoofing for years.
Nav’s only mistake was beating them at their own rigged game.
He showed the world how fragile the market really was.

In 2015, the FBI raided Nav's parents' home.
He faced 22 criminal charges.
Suddenly, the kid from Hounslow became Wall Street’s enemy #1.

But Wall Street needed someone to blame.
Firms couldn’t admit their bots caused the crash.
So the FBI hunted for a scapegoat.
Their target?

Sarao continued trading from his bedroom for years.
No flashy cars.
Still rode a cheap scooter.
Nobody knew he had $65 million in offshore accounts.

Nobody suspected a thing.

He built his own trading bot.
His bot placed giant fake orders, tricking other bots into panic-selling.
Then he’d scoop profits as prices crashed.

In college, a roommate introduced him to trading.
He quickly got obsessed.
Within weeks, he was trading nonstop
At first, he lost most of his student loans.
He called it "tuition" for his real education.

Sarao had one rare skill: Hyperfocus.
He would obsess over tiny details.
In FIFA, he was ranked among the world’s top 200.
The trick? Study his opponents' patterns...
Then do the exact opposite.

Navinder Sarao didn't start out rich.
He grew up poor near the Heathrow airport.
Quiet kid, with few friends.
His only passion was gaming.
More specifically, FIFA.
