Handlung
Börsenmakler Sherman McCoy hat alles, was er sich wünscht: Ein riesiges Haus, Anerkennung, eine reizende Familie und seine attraktive Geliebte Maria Ruskin. Doch eines Nachts verfahren er und Maria sich. Sie landen in einem Ghetto, wo sie einigen jungen Schwarzen begegnen. Bei diesem Kontakt verliert Maria die Nerven und fährt einen der jungen Leute über den Haufen. Da Sherman als Fahrer verdächtigt wird, stürzt sich die Klatschpresse ohne Gnade auf den armen Spekulanten, allen voran der abgewrackte Reporter Peter Fallow. Als mehrere Interessengruppen versuchen den Fall für ihre Ziele zu nutzen, beginnt ein rapider Abstieg für den gebeutelten Sherman...
