A boy in his late teens was asked the same magic question: "What would you do if you had riches?"
"Aw, gee, mister, I don't know. I think, first of all, I would get Dad the motor boat he has always wanted. I would get Mom all the modern things for her kitchen and laundry so she wouldn't have to work so hard. And for me, I would go to one of the big colleges and study electronics."
Doesn't a statement like that make you wish you could give this lad riches right now so that he could put them to work in such a wonderful way?
An uncultured, uneducated man was asked what he would do with riches.
"What do I want with riches?" he blurted. "Shavin' and dressin' up for meals, and mixin' with the snobs and high-hats is not for me. I'm satisfied just as I am."
To men like him this book offers little help. They would read it fearing that
some of the suggestions might rub off on them and cause them to change from
their present relaxed mode of living.
