Sobre IBD

Imagine a world where the absurdity of wealth hoarding meets sharp wit and unapologetic satire. Self-Help for American Billionaires A Parody is your one-way ticket to that world. With biting commentary and brilliant black-and-white woodblock print illustrations that evoke the stark truths of history, Esme Mees pulls no punches. This is not a guide to becoming a better billionaire-it’s a scathing exploration of how obscene wealth and unchecked greed rot the foundation of society.Drawing from the insanities of late-stage capitalism, Mees delivers a series of chapters brimming with sarcastic affirmations, ruthless strategies, and the twisted rationalizations billionaires use to maintain their empires. From 'Networking on Super Yachts' to 'The Art of Hoarding,' this parody strips away the glamour and exposes the underlying sickness of greed.Complete with visual storytelling that’s as striking as it is meaningful, this book is a must-read for anyone ready to laugh at, and critically examine, the gilded absurdities of wealth.
