      Introduction

      It's only money, it's only dough,

      But you can't get enough of the wonderful stuff

      Which we jingle or so

      It's only money, it's lost your way,

      But there's this thing about it that tells snooks without it

      The girls don't give dates

      I love the artwork, the Treasury sure does smart work,

      The nicest people we know

      Are the people who get their faces on dough.

      It's only money, it's only dough,

      And the people who crave it, who worship and save it,

      All come to know

      You can't take it with you when you go.

      Performed by Groucho Max and Frank Sinatra

      Lyrics by Jule Styne and Sammy Cahn

      I have always been a big fan of quotes and sayings. They offer the encapsulated wisdom of both the crowd and the smartest people ever on a wide variety of topics. Plus, they often provide specific, practical advice and do it in a memorable and thoroughly enjoyable way.

      This is a collection of the most notorious, infamous, jocose and valuable insights about money, investing and trading that I could find.

      I hope you like and have fun with the stories. A beautiful print-ready poster with another hilarious anecdote not included in this audiobook can be download for free from morbat.com/burn.
