books that claim to teach the secret to getting rich. Chesterton seems to think that there are only two ways of succeeding‚ “One is by doing very good work‚ the other is by cheating.” He also refine the fact that these articles or books are just a “mysticism of money.” People write books to make money even if they have no idea what they are writing about.
