I advise everyone reading Die Kunst des stilvollen Verarmens. Wie man ohne Geld reich wird [The Art of Growing Poor Stylishly] by Alexander von Schönburg.

Because some people can't help themselves and could end up in really bad places, because for some people spending time doing taxes could be very well used otherwise...
