    I’m surprised they don’t sell “How to Rip off Idiots”, a giant, $500 leather-bound hardcover book with over 1,000 heavyweight blank pages.

      I think 95% of the books on “how to get rich quick” are essentially variations on the theme “write a guide on how to get rich and sell it to other people”

      I had a friend in high school that every week came with the new “money solution” found on a forum called “warrior”, and he tried to crowndfund as much as possible in the class to pay for it… And in the end was something super simple like “sell this guide to others” or simply stupid like “go outside a stadium during a sport event and set an illegal face painting kiosk” or “do dropshipping on ebay using an Amazon prime trial account”
