I came across his book Triangle Exit on Amazon a few days ago and forgot all about him for awhile , Supposedly he traveled all over the world , Was a major C.I.A. FBI LE Spy and double agent . I wanted to read the book but it's not available for purchase on download to Kindle or anything . You have to buy the Hardcover which was like 40 bucks , No paperback, No used editions . I'm like I'm not paying 40 plus dollars for this

Years ago, I wrote a book review about Triangle Exit for Informer Magazine that the editor declined to publish. I was pretty harsh. Fino was a legit union guy who cooperated against the mob but I think he exaggerated his importance/ made up most of the CIA stuff, etc. For example, I think he claimed that perennial presidential candidate Lyndon Larouche was going to make him his vice presidential nominee (Larouche denied this). He claimed he broke up an arms deal involving an Al-Qaeda cell and was involved in a military coup in an African country. He says he always used codenames so you won't find his real name in any of the FBI/CIA documents. It was unintentionally funny in parts. For example, he said he learned his own father as an FBI informant after a random homeless man gave him stolen FBI documents.

You have to wade through the muck to find the kernels of good information.

I remember that , With the homeless guy outside the union local lol... But didn't he write a new one or a newer version ? I remember seeing that the "NEW" Triangle exit was published in 2018 or 2017 .And Yeah the CIA James bond shit had me a lil skeptical but who knows ? These guys sure love telling outrageous stories and making themselvea way more important then they could ever dream possible

I checked and the lowest price was $145. That's insane. A few years ago it was being sold as a 99 cent bargain book.

Holy fucken christ !!! When I wanted to buy it it was 40 plus for some raggedy horrible hard copy used ! Brand new was around 69.99 to 80 plus dollars ....No Way ! Now it's $145 Wowwwww. This guy really thinks he's the most special gift to this earth and his story is 2nd to none ! These guys are really out of there minds , This guy really does think he's the real life version of 007 James Bond ! I can see Franzese start heading in that direction soon , He's already out there too . Now he was supposed to be Acting boss , Next he'll be saying he was the Treasury secretary for the Pope and the Vatican

Fino has nothing to do with the price of his books. I'm sure he'd be as surprised as we are.
