    How hedge funds make money by taking it from the rest of us—and how you can join them! 
     
     
     
    Top hedge fund managers make more than Oprah, Rupert Murdoch, and A-Rod combined—but they aren't running news and entertainment empires or playing baseball for the New York Yankees. Aren't you curious about how these hedge fund dudes make so much doing who knows what? You may even wonder if you can get there, too. After all, this is America! 
     
     
     
    This book gives you the answers in a twelve-step guide to accumulating vast riches the way hedge fund managers do—by playing trillion-dollar poker with a marked deck. Through each easy step, you'll learn the sleight of hand and disregard for basic morality you'll need to move from making tens of dollars an hour to millions an hour! Along the way, you'll also question whether these hedge fund moguls make markets work better—as they and their apologists insist—or cause instability, siphon off capital, and destroy value without adding so much as a single widget to the economy.

    What if the pursuit of fairness and justice was leading us down a path of unintended harm? In Social Justice Fallacies, the author dismantles the myths and misconceptions that dominate modern social justice narratives, offering a bold, evidence-based critique that will challenge the way you think about fairness, equality, and progress.
     
    This thought-provoking audiobook explores how well-intentioned policies—aimed at correcting historical wrongs and creating equal outcomes—often backfire, perpetuating dependency, resentment, and inefficiency. With clarity and rigor, the author dissects key social justice fallacies, from the misinterpretation of group disparities to the misuse of historical narratives. Through real-world examples and data-driven insights, the book reveals how cultural values, individual choices, and economic principles play a greater role in shaping outcomes than popular narratives suggest.

    A lyrical portrait of a young Irish woman reinventing herself at the turn of the twentieth century in America. 
     
     
     
    In July 1882, Ellen O'Hara stepped off a ship from the West of Ireland to begin a new life in New York. What she encountered was a world of casual racial prejudice that characterized her as ignorant, dirty, and feckless, the butt of many jokes. From the slim range of jobs available to her she, like, many of her kind, found a position as a domestic servant, working long hours and living in to save on rent and keep. After an unfortunate marriage, Ellen determined to win financial security on her own, and eventually opened a boarding house where her two children were able to rejoin her. 
     
     
     
    Vona Groarke builds this story from historical fact, drawing from various archives for evidence of Ellen. However, she also considers why lives such as Ellen's seem to leave such a light trace in such records and fills in the gaps with memory and empathetic projection. Ellen—scrappy, skeptical, and straight-talking—is the heroine of Hereafter, whose resilience animates the story and whose voice shines through with vivid clarity. Hereafter is both a compelling account of an incredible figure and a reflection on how one woman's story can speak for more than one life.
