But sniggering and mockery prior to any attempt to better yourself financially, followed by envy later, or gloating during your initial failures—these are three certainties in life. Whatever qualities the rich may have, they can be acquired by anyone with the tenacity to become rich. And knowledge is power, at whatever age, whether earned by blood and tears or imbibed at a mother's breast.

Canny, infuriating, cynical and generous by turns, How To Get Rich is an invaluable guide to 'the surprisingly simple art of collecting money which already has your name on it'. Rightly, he has very harsh words for the whiner who blames others - especially his family - for not being rich: it doesn't work like that.
