Reading for pleasure, reading a novel while you are on the bus or train or the subway, reading a biography instead of returning all of your boss's e-mails, reading philosophy in the back of a seminar that your corporate team sent you to, reading a short prose poem translated from Spanish by your favorite Chilean playwright in the coffee shop, reading a movie review on line at the place where you pay bills when you are too late to mail them- just reading novels and books in general will greatly aid you in your pursuit not to be rich, if only in their sheer time-as-money-wasting capacity. It makes a practicing non-bazillionaire like myself tremble to consider how much money I could lose reading Anna Karenina.
- Robert Sullivan
