A VERY FUNNY BUT WISE BOOK

There must be thousands of books on how to be rich. I don't think it's easy to find one on how to be poor. George Mikes (pronunced [mikish]) Set out to write one and the result was this hilarious yet serious and philosophical essay. In a world where being rich seems highly desirable George Mikes analises the draw backs and miseries of this condition. Any rich man fep up with having so much money and wanting to become poor, could read this book. A lovely book indeed with a lot of wisdom in it.
