Richistan by Robert Frank

• Published moments before the most recent recession, this books is a snap shot of the rich in a boom time.
• There are two things Frank doesn't take into account: inflation and population growth. Staggering numbers about the increasing number of million and billionaires are presented.  These statistics are not analyzed in regard to monetary inflation or population growth.
• The book combines descriptions of overall trends with stories of specific individuals making a highly-readable and compelling book.
