Produktbeschreibung
The question is not, ´why is it so hard to get rich´, but ´why is it so easy for some people to get rich?´ Wealth Secrets of the One Per Cent is an exploration of how people become billionaires. Spanning centuries and continents, from the Ancient World to the twenty-first-century, global economic forecaster Sam Wilkin reveals how a select handful of individuals at key entrepreneurial moments in history made their fortune. Tales of Roman debauchery, market-stalls in India and the new ´patent parties´ of Silicon Valley may not seem, at first glance, to be connected . Yet Wilkin´s surprising insight is that despite superficial differences, from Roman senators to Mexican telecoms billionaires and from dot com visionaries to emerging market magnates, their methods of wealth accumulation have a great deal in common. Behind almost every great fortune is a ´wealth secret´, a moneymaking technique that involves defeating the forces of market competition. They´re not pretty, but who said making a billion was easy? At a time when one per cent of the world´s population owns half of its wealth, Sam Wilkin´s immaculately researched, witty, provocative book is essential, entertaining and revelatory reading.
