Word.
I used to read those kinds of book veraciously, and the more I investigated the back story on most of the people selling business books on "how to make it big" the more I've come to find out that they've acquired their wealth through dirty dealings, and good 'ol fashioned political interference. The old saying "Behind Every Great Fortune There Is an Even Greater Crime" has never rang truer. These people are no smarter than the rest, just more criminal, and manipulative.
