Crazy Rich: Power, Scandal, And Tragedy Inside The Johnson & Johnson Dynasty (2013) - Plot & Excerpts

This book depicts the progress of one family from rags to riches. A rather stereotypical presentation of how wealth and power can be a dangerous combination. The history of the families involved with the Johnson&Johnson empire is fascinating and at times appalling. The stories of the entangled families are from where soap operas evolve. It is a blatant reminder that money does not buy happiness. Not a bad book, but one of those where after I slogged through it wondered why I had wanted to read it in the first place. Picking it up from the catchy title and finding myself caught up in a never ending tabloid presentation on the dysfunction of a typical family. Or as in this case with the added dimension of unlimited wealth. The book was thrown together somewhat sloppily like a tabloid with a few photos thrown in to spice it up. But even the pictures were limited. There were also a number of errors in the book showing the author was not aware of some basic historical and geographical facts. The one lesson that comes out of it all and one most of us are aware of is that super wealth can mess up generations.

I lost interest in the book mid-way through it.
