Cook, a brash young money manager from Apple Valley, had his business interests put under a receivership this week at the request of regulators who accuse him in federal court filings of amassing a fortune by running an international Ponzi scheme involving currency trades.
According to documents made public Wednesday, Cook, 37, likes fancy cars as much as the next high-roller: The documents show he had a Rolls Royce Silver Spur, a Maserati Quattroporte, a Hummer H2, a Jaguar S-Type, a Mercedes-Benz 420SEL and possibly other cars. Investors say Cook bragged about his heavily customized Audi S8, which he said could top 200 miles per hour.
But Cook might be best remembered for his 60-foot houseboat (complete with a brass stripper pole), his island in Canada — and his two-person submarine.
