    About this ebook

    Do you want to get rich quick, have a lot of possessions and live extravagantly? Frikkie and Plug will demonstrate how to go about it. But first you must accept that a social conscience is of no use to a South African entrepreneur. If you never let morality or ethics stand in the way of making a fast buck, you can go from rags to riches without busting a gut. All that you need is a sharp idea and a willingness to exploit the gullible, the greedy and the venal.
