In 1991, Jamie Miller and Bill King, both in their forties and leading separate (relatively modest) lives, found themselves dissatisfied with their circumstances. Life-changing experiences prompted them to abandon their lack of ambition and pursue a path to substantial wealth. Eventually, they crossed paths and realized they had been deceived. Alongside a feisty young Rachel Haines, they embarked on a journey to uncover that even in the pre-internet era, outrageous ideas, audacious schemes, and fake news, including the possibility of beaming a laser-powered advertisement across the moon, could lead to fortune. Bill Whiting weaves a tale that follows three characters driven by their desire for financial gain.

For the Love of Money takes a sardonic, satirical, and humorous approach to exploring the realms of finance, newspapers, the internet, advertising, and Parliament. It delves into the complexities of human relationships, societal norms, and the pursuit of wealth, offering a biting commentary on the world around us. Through its engaging characters and clever storytelling, the novel offers a thought-provoking exploration of the lengths people will go to achieve their financial goals and the consequences of their actions.
