520    "Why does financial fraud persist? Why do rich people get 
       taken advantage of in financial scams? Who are some of the
       most successful charlatans and hucksters of all-time and 
       why were they so successful? What are the financial and 
       business lessons we can learn from some of the biggest 
       frauds in history? What are the conditions under which 
       fraud tends to work best? What steps can people take to 
       avoid being taken advantage of with their money? Why is it
       often harder to stay rich than to get rich? Each chapter 
       in the book will profile different frauds, charlatans, 
       hucksters or victims of scams. Following stories and 
       anecdotes about how these frauds were carried out, there 
       will be studies and lessons detailing what can be learned 
       from these experiences and how they apply to business, 
       money management, and investing"--|cProvided by publisher.
