Customer Reviews

Not a great gift for your CEO, unless they self depricate well.

Great insight into the rich, powerful, educated and vain that will make you laugh at them and at the same time understand them better and see your own tendencies in that direction on occasion. This should be a must read for anyone that is employed by a country club or works in direct service to the elite. It might help the world if all our educators, CEOs and politicians were forced to read it as well. As Vanity, Superiority and Greed never seem to leave us this book will be a treasure to keep handy and pass down from one generation to the next. If you can't beat them, might as well laugh at them.
