Her latest work, \"Damn Right!

They are not inheritors. They did not fall by it accidentally,\" she said. \"It came about as the result of having a particular talent that they recognized very early in their lives, and they concentrated on it.\"\u003cbr\u003e She says that Warren Buffett was fascinated by investing even as a child, that Oprah Winfrey began working in radio and television while still in high school, that Ted Turner, although a \"wild child,\" was always someone who saw big ideas and took big risks.\u003cbr\u003e Lowe challenges the stereotype of the wealthy as dishonest and ruthless. Money talks - but it talks straight.\u003cbr\u003e \"People usually do not rise to this level unless they' re very smart, good communicators, and ethical,\" she explained. \"You may not agree with the philosophy of a Warren Buffett or a Jack Welch (the head of General Electric) and with what they do or how they feel, but they are honest and true to themselves and they follow an ethical course. They'll tell you that if you' re not a straight shooter and an honest dealer, people will see that and not work with you.\"\u003cbr\u003e The San Diego Union-Tribune Online (By Sarah Sabalos LaSpaluto, October 29, 2000\u003cbr\u003e \"Janet Lowe's extensive access to Charlie Munger, his family, friends and business partners has ensured a perceptive look at the man and his business methods.\" (Lloyd's List, 9th December 2000)\u003cbr\u003e \"This is a well-written, fascinating, cautionary tale which examines the seductive nature of power, and people's willingness to believe in these latter-day icons.\" (International Wealth Management, October 2000)\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eDas einzige Buch, das einen der geheimnisvollsten Anleger im Investmentgeschaft portratiert: Charlie Munger - der Kopf, der hinter Investmentguru Warren Buffett stand.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Geschrieben von Janet Lowe, beruhmte Autorin der WILEY Speaks-Bestsellerreihe.
