From 1996. IIRC, the typical American millionaire is a general contractor. Great advice here.

I read it not long after it was published...and even remember some of it!

Out in what used to be the sticks, where we live the addresses are seldom what one would expect.

Guessing the old guys selected a number they liked.

Opening the mail from our broker, I noticed simular holdings but the quantities are much larger, a computer glitch?
On the face sheet a different name!
Yes, the multi-millionaire down the lane.

It was for a neighbor about a mile down; the address is only one number different! The old houses have a similar appearance and delivery services have a difficult time.

Early one morning I was headed out for a bike ride and there were thousands of plastic forks sticking up from my lawn!
They have two kids a bit older than ours and with MANY friends.
WE HAD BEEN FORKED!

The mower bagged the forks quickly.
