Richistan: A Journey Through the American Wealth Boom and the Lives of the New Rich

if you're looking for a way to feel bad about your financial status, and disgusted with today's consumer culture, this is the book for you!

This is a fascinating look at the New Rich. It shows you how the divide between haves and have-nots is growing, and how the haves are struggling to make the most of their wealth. It seems to me, not enough of them have a grasp on how to be philanthropic and, if they do, most don't do enough and certainly do it for the wrong reasons.

Entertaining

Good book! It either leaves you with a new found optimism about becoming a citizen of Richistan or pessimism of never going to make it there.
