Review: Floatsam and Jetsam or Highfliers? - Gripping narrative about how Lloyds and maritime world functions with eyes on easy money forgetting the lives of ordinary humans. Don’t billionaires have no qualms about making more money by employing laborers with less pay from India, Indonesia and Philippines who work for long hours without caring even their welfare and safety? It is astounding that the shipping industry is structured through tax havens and multilayered corporate shell companies to claim ignorance, diffuse responsibility and evade tax and regulatory obligations. The book is worth the candle.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Floatsam and Jetsam or Highfliers?
*by M***A on 23 December 2024*

Gripping narrative about how Lloyds and maritime world functions with eyes on easy money forgetting the lives of ordinary humans. Don’t billionaires have no qualms about making more money by employing laborers with less pay from India, Indonesia and Philippines who work for long hours without caring even their welfare and safety? It is astounding that the shipping industry is structured through tax havens and multilayered corporate shell companies to claim ignorance, diffuse responsibility and evade tax and regulatory obligations. The book is worth the candle.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A tragic story about an unheard world

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A shadowy industry…
*by S***T on 8 December 2025*

A look beyond the shadows at one of the world’s most essential, yet utterly secretive industries. The book is written like a novel and one races through it. A proper eye opener. Tragic but factual. Sadly everything including morals, honour and decency, are always sacrificed on the altar of money.
