No really. Am I the only one who thinks this could be a great and bizarre interview? Pre-recorded and edited, obviously. Hey if it sucks you don't have to air it.

I mean you're researching who the ruling class is today and this guy just wrote a book about how to join the Rich Idiot Club. How can you turn it down?

"Whether you've been trying to get rich but haven't quite made it yet, or just need the confidence to dream big, this is the book for you. [...] Here, you'll learn how to: [...]

• use the power and "smarts" of other Rich Idiots to help you join the Rich Idiot Club • add OPI (other people's ideas), OPT (other people's time), and OPE (other people's experience) to do less and make more • tap into timeless secrets that unlock the energy and spiritual power of money"

OPI+OPT+OPE => the spiritual power of money
