ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD How the Forbes 400 Make--and Spend--Their Fortunes

Substance and impact are palpable in this fascinating audio about the life stories and financial strategies of America's richest people. Based on magazine and newspaper articles and many first-person interviews, it describes some of the most messianic, eccentric, and risk-taking people you'll ever hear about. Celebrity media and entertainment giants are part of the group, and their often grandiose approaches to making money will energize entrepreneurs everywhere. With his vocal clarity and deftly restrained enthusiasm, Rick Adamson was an excellent choice to deliver this entertaining business book. Along with the cogent abridgement of the text, his comfortable diction and obvious admiration for this material move the stories along smartly and make it hard to pause at any point.
