A just-found old review of the very first time the Get Rich Cheating seminar was offered, on ShowbusinessWeekly.com. It’s gotten much better, much more powerful, since, but, even back then: “timely and hilarious”… “a perfect parody”… “every sentence is witty and thought out”… and “he keeps the audience laughing throughout.”
The Cheater Says: How’d I find it? I Google myself. Actually, I have several lovely assistants Google me. Come learn how to be rich enough to employee sexy, Google-only assistants, as the Get Rich Cheating seminar tours NYC, Chicago, and San Fran. More reviews and details here.
The Cheater Says: But, HP, when you fired Carly Fiorina (running for US Senate) for incompetence (running HP into the ground), you only gave her $21.4 million… Oh, wait, that’s about right - 25% less - she’s a girl.
The Cheater will be on MSNBC today, 4:45pm, Dylan Ratigan Show, talking about the brave hedge fund managers who went to Connecticut looking for tax breaks. Such noble warriors.
Tune in.
Billionaire Brothers Run $550 Million Scam
The Cheater Says: These guys, the Wyly brothers, were major philanthropists. They say “Charity Starts at Home…” and so it does. Through their generosity, they maintained The Sam Wyly Needs A Bigger Mansion Foundation, The Charles Wyly Probably Should Get Another Yacht Endowment, and The, C’Mon, You Never Suspected Us Even Though Our Name Is Basically “Wiley”? Fund. Kudo$.
The Cheater: Once again, everyone, once you’re a CEO, the strategy is to perform just poorly enough to get a really bitchin’ severance package. See also, Eisner (Disney, $220 million), Nardelli (Home Depot, $210M), Raines (Fannie Mae, $148M), McKinnell (Pfizer, $213M), Satan (Heaven, $666M).
The Cheater Says: Since this cheater has done so much for themselves, why don’t we do something for ourselves… and to them. Become these people with these claims:
• A blues singer whose life - wife done left me, job won’t pay, dog won’t fetch - actually seems pretty good. No motivation to sing.
• A comedian who really doesn’t think it’s funny any more. Wasted years of comedy training, now going into tragedy. Need money to start at sadness academy.
• The Mayans, for copyright infringement on their whole 2012-the-world-ends thing.
• Mike Brown, GWB’s head of FEMA during Hurricane Katrina. Loss of economic opportunity. Was writing a book, “How I Destroyed New Orleans and the Gulf.” Publisher backing out of deal.
• BP for lost money via the BP Claims Line.
