Tobias, “the funniest of financial writers” (Newsweek), writes a “refreshingly honest” chronicle (Kirkus Reviews) of his own financial exploits and escapades, in a book that is part financial memoir, part investment how-to, and part comedy of errors. Index.

Review:
Financial journalist Andrew Tobias is so socially conscientious that he once mounted an antismoking campaign in Russia simply because it seemed like a good idea. He has likewise taken it upon himself to upgrade living conditions in south Florida, support auto insurance reform in California, and undertake other crusades that result from his lifelong internal conflict between capitalism and socialism. Tobias can take on such causes because he's made quite a bit of money through writing and investment. In My Vast Fortune: The Money Adventures of a Quixotic Capitalist, he humorously reveals the details without hesitating to note that the joke is often on him.
From the Publisher:
"This book will make you rich. Filthy stinking rich. You will never work again. You will spend the rest of your life on the Riviera sipping pina coladas and listening to Sinatra. And even if this doesn't happen, Andrew Tobias will provide you with such a wealth of wit that you will retire with a vast fortune of laughter."
--Christopher Buckley, author of Wry Martinis and Thank You for Not Smoking

"If you don't think finance, politics or real estate can be funny, read Andrew Tobias' book. He relates his experiences with incredible humor and insight. By laughing at his own foibles, smiling in the face of adversity, and never underestimating the value of a low bid, Andy perseveres against odds that most people wouldn't consider trying to beat."
--David Geffen, billionaire
"No one is funnier, wiser, or more humane than Andrew Tobias, which is abundantly evident in My Vast Fortune. It's autobiography, self-help and entertainment all wrapped into one fast-paced, remarkably candid and heartfelt book. For anyone who hopes to not only get ahead but enjoy life to the fullest, this is essential reading."
--James B. Stewart, author of Den of Thieves and Blood Sport
