The Billionaire Boys Club Sue Horton 9780312028725 Books Reviews

Humorous and fantastical novel. Halley's comet returns in 1986. Its incarnation on Earth returns as well. "The incarnation is philosophical, like a Greek Island". Fun but uneven novel published in 1980. It's worth a trip to the library, but what are the odds you'll find this book?
Is it just me? I read this book and it's about a rich aristocratic family launching a probe at Halley's Comet in order to set a precedent in laws of ownership of objects in space (so they can then claim the planets without ever visiting them). Nothing in there about making money on the stock exchange or patricide. I know it sounds like I'm knocking the previous reviews but hey guys, that's not the same book!
I am amazed that there are not more reviews of this book, especially given the fact that this case was so highly publicized. There was also a t.v. movie of the same name and it has been documented that Lyle and Eric Menendez were "inspired" by the movie to commit the horrific murders of their parents.

This is the true story of Joe Hunt, a brilliant psychopath who, several years after graduating from the exclusive Harvard School in Los Angeles, formed a club he named the BBC. This club was made up of other young men from affluent families who wanted to make big money fast. The club was to be part investment and part social. The boys would live together, pool their resources and live by Joe's creed of "Paradox Philisophy", which was simply Joe's way of exercising control and manipulation over the other members.

Joe's investments soon go awry and he ends up loosing the money that other people have trusted him to invest for them. When things get out of control, Joe plots murder and kidnapping and that is when the book really takes off. I could not put it down!

This is an excellent true crime story which focuses on Joe Hunt's ruthless anti-social personality. It is an excellent portrait of an evil sociopath.

True crime fans will love this book! I highly recommend it.
Joe Hunt's story is fascinating, Sue Horton did an amazing job getting to the bottom of the story from all points of view, I have read this book and watched the old CBS TV movie numerous times over the years.

I have my own theory about Ron Levin's alleged murder, and it isn't popular! I personally believe Ron Levin faked his own death and conned Joe into aiding him..the perfect getaway. Ron Levin was out on bail and was facing many years in prison, Ron wasn't a young man, so 15-20 years would be Catastrophic in his mind. In my opinion, Ron Levin saw Joe as the perfet target, young, ambitious, eager to build an empire at all costs, much like Ron Levin himself. Ron may have payed Joe to aid him. This theory is supported by the fan that multiple people have seen Ron Levin alive and well years after his alleged murder! Must be his ghost, huh! Plus his corpse was never found.

As for Joe and his confession to some of the BBC members about murdering Ron Levin, I have a theory about that as well..Joe was eager to gain power and respect from the other members, and in his mind this was a way to do that, sort of the mafia mentality of bragging about a "hit", in this case the BBC saw Ron had scammed Joe with the Commodities scam, which knocked their confidence in Joe down as well as he groups morale, Joe had to find a way to get their confidence back as well as respect, but it backfired obviously. Joe was infatuated about people believing he was some sort of preternaturally special person, hence his story about a psychic telling his he was the beast of revelations, some special ambitious people do have those same dreams where being te antichrist means you would be the powerful...heck, I used to believe I was the beast also! Lol jk

Another issue, Joe met with Ron alone numerous times and Ron took Joe under his wing as a protege, they became friends over this period of time and it is not far fetched to believe at Joe helped Lein fake his own death, I believe it's very likely given he evidence.

I have a feeling the real truth will come out soon and I would like to start investigating this scenario even more part time. If any other people support this contact me, maybe we can solve this mystery! )

It was a good book, but not as informative as I would like
I've watched the movie and seen a lot of news stories on the group. Truly an awesome read. I'm not the fastest reader but I breezed through this. So fascinating to read about the group, their endeavors, and of course, Joe Hunt.

If you're into true crime this is an absolute must read. From the outside and from the documentaries out there the BBC was a group that got in way over their heads and decided to kill both for revenge and for profit. But Ms. Hinton delves deeper to discover really what made Joe Hunt tick and what made him mad. He's a fascinating psychopath who even garnered sympathy from me even though I knew that he had ordered one murder, assisted in another, and likely did yet another. The whole thing is crazy!! READ THIS BOOK.
