Summary: "Three wishes less commission." -- the good fairy
Comment: I first discovered The New Yorker when I was a teenager. When I saw how many people subscribed to the magazine, I started asking people why they did. Inevitably, the answer was, "For the cartoons." Since then, I have come to realize that The New Yorker is like the hall of fame for cartoonists.
Now, subscriptions to The New Yorker are pretty expensive, so your cost per cartoon can be hefty. Buy this book, and slash your cost per cartoon while increasing your laughs per minute!
Seriously (no kidding), this volume is well done. It leads off with a very witty essay about money from Christopher Buckley of Forbes FYI who introduces some of the cartoons.
As well drawn as these 110 classic cartoons are, you'll find that many of them work as quips. "I married you for your money, Leonard. Where is it?"
The pursuit of money is always tinged with concern about what one is giving up to get it. "Well, anyhow, it sure is handy having my broker right here in my cell."
Money can be a distressing subject as well, too delicate for the dinner table. "Must you tell us our daily share of the national debt every time we sit down to dinner?"
Money is an important subject. One that often comes up in families at other times. "Your mother called to remind you to diversify," says secretary to the executive.
The dog's eye view is helpful also, as one pooch says to the other, "Let's face it -- man's best friend is money."
The challenges of having enough money can bring us all up short. Like the man addressing the bank teller said, "I'd like to bounce a check."
It's no wonder that money has been such a constant source of cartoons in The New Yorker. By putting many of the best ones in this fine book, you'll have a good cross section of the best New Yorker cartoons in recent years.
Have a good laugh! Then stop to think about what stalled thinking you may have about money. Then think about how you could change your beliefs about money to have a better life.

Summary: Find that person who dislikes cartoons, they gotta be dead.
Comment: As a former business owner, I found that those without a sence of humor soon lost money.
Here is a book of cartoons that will help most everyone laugh, maybe even those on the way to their best tax haven (page 13),or those who want to discuss the portfolio losses with their broker (page 96). There is also some excellent advice to use when responding to those unwanted cold calls (page 46).
Yes, I do like cartoons. With this book you can become a very good "money person".
It is bound to bring many laughs, today, tomorrow and in much of the future!
