Surprising lessons on having self-respect in relationships!
Considering how many men want submissive little mail-order brides from developing countries, or large silicon breasted blondes, or mindless ninnies, or whatever, I cannot get too upset about somebody wanting to marry a wealthy person. Having said that, I must admit this book surprised me because it teaches readers a lot about setting high standards in intimate personal relationships. Anyone (male or female) who feels they have ever allowed themselves to be treated less well than they deserve, or who feels they need to raise expectations regarding what is acceptable behavior from their partner, should benefit from this author's lessons in practical psychology. And if you find that you also want to marry rich, GO FOR IT. In any case, it seems a more honourable way to gain wealth than through the sort of vile and back-stabbing political behavior one often sees in the corporate world.

END Part I - To Be Continued

The essential guide to social engineering
I have given away every copy of this book I ever had - to computer security experts! The book explains the range of techniques that one can use to deliberately gain someone's trust by digging up private or semi-private information on them. Spies, private eyes, investigative journalists, etc., can all use the techniques, depending on how much they want to put on the line. Let's face it, most military secrets in the world were "sucked out" of the most trusted military leaders using exactly these methods: manipulation of social trust, deliberate setting-up of "coincidental" situations, small scale lies that exploit people's natural trust, etc..

Oh, yes, they're useful to marry the rich, too! When I was designing an internet dating system (webpersonals.com) i made some of my designers read this book. The women couldn't get enough of it, and it tended to make the men a little paranoid. But if there's even one Ginie Polo Sayles in the world, no one is safe! Better to know...!
