But without a doubt, Soros' most famous trade is his shorting of the British pound back in 1992. The upcoming book "More Money Than God," written by Sebastian Mallaby, tells the tale of how Soros used his Quantum Fund to break the pound to pieces and pocket a billion dollars.  The Bank of England's plan was to aggressively buy the pound in hope that it would inspire confidence and stop speculators from destroying the currency. Germany's central bank began to attack Britain, calling for a devaluation of the pound. Soros had AT LEAST $1.5 billion bet on the pound since August, 1992. The devaluation crisis occurred a month later in September. Instead of steadily building up a position in September of 1992, Soros told his lieutenants to "go for the jugula...

With the collapse of the fierce battle at the Supreme Court on Friday to stave off his trial by the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) for allegedly falsifying his declaration of his assets, Senate President, Bukola Saraki, on conviction risks 14 years jail term, losing his position, 10 years ban form holding public and forfeiture of any asset related to the alleged offence.
