{{tropelist}}
=== This novel provides examples of: ===
 
* [[Author Filibuster]]: While they're not particularly long, the book contains frequent diversions talking about economics and the financial industry.
* [[Four Lines, All Waiting]]: They all get tied together eventually, but there are quite a few concurrent plotlines.
* [[Green -Eyed Monster]]: Connor observes that envy -- the thought that somebody might be getting rich ''and you aren't'' -- can be even more powerful than greed.
* [[Leeroy Jenkins]]: Wei-Dong's team's customer early in the book plays the trope completely straight, charging recklessly into the boss chamber and ruining the team's careful plans.
* [[Massive Multiplayer Scam]]: The Webblies organize a massive pyramid scheme.
