LIQUIDITY : Satirical Novella of the Aspirational Class

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - They have a leased truck, a financed engagement ring, a five-week-old son with his own affiliate code, and a credit score they lie about to each other. They have everything - except the money to pay for any of it. Everything they own is borrowed. Brayden and Ashleigh Mott live at 1184 Montalcino Court, in a subdivision named after a region of Italy its developers never visited. He sells a get-rich 'blueprint' to teenage boys from a Mercedes he rents by the hour. She performs a radiant 'lifestyle' for nine hundred followers from the one angle of the kitchen where the crack in the wall doesn't show. They are not solvent. They have not been solvent in years. But they are liquid - they can make today come out - and the machine they live inside has made being liquid feel so much like being rich that a person can spend an entire life never learning the difference. Three floors above them, in a sealed and silent house, a man named Carter Vandermeer owns a sliver of every payment they will ever miss. He has never heard their names. He never will. LIQUIDITY is a short, savage, blackly funny novella about debt, status, and the American hunger to be seen - a fable for the influencer age, built in two columns that rhyme: the couple drowning at the bottom of the ladder, and the billionaire who climbed all the way to the top and found the same beige nothing waiting for him there. For readers of Tom Wolfe, Gary Shteyngart, and Mohsin Hamid's How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia.One evening to read. It will permanently ruin your relationship with the words passive income.
