    Dear MG-ED-DV folks - Thought some of you might find this interesting, so I
    figured I'd send it to the list; hope you enjoy it...

    ---
    I have permission from John Wiley & Sons to distribute an excerpt from
    financial expert Martin Fridson's new book, "How to Be a Billionaire."
    Fridson's in-depth analysis of the richest men in America results in a
    treasure map to wealth. In this riveting look at the fat cats of American
    business, Fridson digs past the hostile takeovers, the mergers and
    acquisitions and the IPOs to discover what really makes a billionaire.

    From the retail empire of Wal-Mart to the high tech domains of Microsoft,
    billions are there to be made, and Sam Walton and Bill Gates have more in
    common than you may think. Martin Fridson distills the essences of success
    and creates his Billionaire How-To list.

    Do you have what it takes to throw your dice in with the high rollers? To
    get the excerpt, just send mailto:jhart@tenagra.com with the subject line:
    "Send Billionaire" and I'll reply with a text file. Thank you. If you would
    like to join Martin Fridson to talk about How to Be a Billionaire - join us
    at these upcoming chats.
