Summary

Do you know how to pronounce turbot? Is it lemon or lime in a gin and tonic? What do you wear to a barbecue? Is it ever okay to shop in Lidl?

Reggie has all the answers to help you climb the social ladder.

A beautifully spoken billionaire, Reggie is president of COCI (The Captains of Cork Industry) and owner of a 6.2 million euro mansion on the Blackrock Road. (In Cork, not the frankly shabby one they have up in Dublin.)

It's one social climbing nugget after another, laid out in 24 simple steps, so even you should be able to follow it. (No offence.)
Available since: 10/16/2023.
Print length: 200 pages.

    A fake pregnancy, a real baby, and a madcap adventure: This follow-up to The Thin Pink Line is “even better than the first book” (Booklist).   London editor Jane Taylor pretended to be pregnant for months. Now she has rescued an actual abandoned baby—which would have come in handy for keeping up her charade, except that the infant is black and Jane is white. Finally giving up her ruse, Jane comes clean to the people in her life—but she wants to keep this precious little one.   To do that, she’ll have to battle Social Services and take on anyone who tries to get in her way, with some help from her ex-boyfriend Tolkien. But as she tries to reassure others—and herself—that she would make a fit mother, it’s clear that she’ll always be crazy Jane . . .   This is a delightfully comic and touching tale from an author with a “deft touch and sure eye for character” (Elizabeth Letts, New York Times–bestselling author of The Perfect Horse).

    DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL BOOK. 
This is a summary, and it does not accompany the official 
'The Fund' by Rob Copeland delves into the world of billionaire Ray Dalio and his hedge fund, Bridgewater Associates. It exposes the carefully crafted image of Dalio as a benevolent business titan, revealing that his touted "principles" fostered a toxic culture of paranoia and backstabbing within the company. Through interviews with insiders, the book provides a thrilling glimpse into the world of wealth and power, where figures like former FBI director Jim Comey and political candidates like David McCormick are influenced by Dalio's charisma. It serves as a cautionary tale, highlighting the disconnect between making money and understanding human nature.
