With his standout Wall Street line “Greed is good,”
Gordon Gekko became pop culture icon for unrestrained greed. But,
while greed might be great for one person–especially when
that person is fictional–it’s not so great for good
people living in the real world. In Goodbye Gordon Gekko: How to
Find Your Fortune and Not Lose Your Soul, Anthony Scaramucci
describes how a better understanding of people, capital, and
culture can be used to enrich one’s life, financially as well
as spiritually. With smart and engaging prose, the book:
• Discusses how the best manifestations of
ambition, entrepreneurship and mentoring can lead to a life that
not only fulfills financial obligations, but also leaves a lasting
legacy
• Describes ways in which Americans and
American companies can act to avoid the kind of crisis that
crippled the country’s economy
• Details how to build a core set of values
to discover wealth on one’s own terms
Given the turmoil in financial markets over the past few years,
many people are reevaluating what it means to be
“rich.” Goodbye Gordon Gekko shows how
it’s possible to be well-off without all the trappings of
wealth.
