Overview
Welcome!
You are entering the world of C. Binal Running, my deceased and fictional billionaire uncle. Before his retirement, Uncle Binal was CEO of Porcudyne. The press often warned that he might run for president, but he preferred to pay lobbyists and politicians to get what he wanted. This book was edited from his private journals, which he wrote as advice for people determined to do what he did: Get to the top of the food chain and stay there – then luxuriate in his six homes, private jet, and yacht. For samples of his wisdom, read his words in the "Quotes" box at right.
Design
The book can be read cover to cover, but it was designed as a quick look-up desk reference. It contains 365 topics arranged in alphabetical order.
Secrets of a Dead Billionaire,
Here are some quotes from the book. As you will quickly see, C. Binal Running will add startling wisdom to your pathetic, underachieving lives, and help you too become one of the one in ten thousand super-rich people who rule America. We will provide new quotes periodically to keep you on track.
“…whatever the circumstances, blame someone else.” (from "Blame")
“…wealth creates images of greatness in the minds of those who don’t have it.” (from "Compensation")
“Nothing will perk you up and make you appreciate your own life more than mingling with the masses, the poor, the diseased, and the desperate.” (from "Depression")
“A little government is not a bad thing so long as the right people have access to it.” (from "Government")
“Nothing interferes more with the conduct of good business than nagging feelings.” (from "Sentimentality")
“Options always make better deals than deals, particularly when you can exercise them before you received them.” (from "Stock Options")
“Only fools and poor people pay taxes.” (from "Taxes")
“There is no greater risk to business as usual than a highly organized majority of ordinary people determined to impose their will on those who hold power and own capital.” (from "Unions")
Like all books that strive to be something other than meretricious, it has many uses. For example, it is guaranteed to be 100% combustible and it is large enough to press maple leaves. It can also be read. If you read it and like it please do your part to give our plutocracy the attention it so deserves: Recommend the book to all your friends who work hard, pay taxes, shop, hope, and then wonder why there is so little change left on their tables.
Thank you for visiting,
David R. Montague
