His mothers labor pains keep interrupting her ad agencys new business planning session. Shes conducting it in the bedroom of her home where ambulance drivers are waiting to rush her to a hospital delivery room. Every detail is timed to the minute. Lindas husband is brokering a commercial real estate deal in another city. When he arrives home, he will find a note on the refrigerator door saying, Had Priscilla Louise. Everything is fine. But everything is not fine. Despite all of the powers of positive thinking, Jones has two birth defects. One hes a boy. His parents will have to find a new name for her . . er . . him. Worse, Nfn Nmi Jones was born without an ego. With no sense of self, he always does the unexpected. Nursery school, grade school, high school, college. When the perpetual motion parents he never got to know are killed in an airplane crash, he inherits enough wealth to donate to his favorite charity- needy corporations. He does this by buying their stock as theyre about to go bankrupt and he winds up owning the most inept company conceivable. The story ends in a flurry of interoffice insulting memos that flow through the companys mail room where Jones works incognito.About the AuthorAuthor Bio: After a 50-year career in public relations and marketing communications where I sought mightily, but never very successfully, to climb the ladder of success, my recently failing brain wondered what the reverse would be like. Suppose someone born to wealth and power had a driving ambition to become a poor failure. Can it be all that easy to succeed if your goal is to fail? How hard is it to succeed in failing? Therein Nfi Nmi Jones and his drive to the bottom was born.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68075435229472,"sku":"NEW1470199734","price":7.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61JQ3PHSGuL.jpg?v=1793439198","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/up-the-corporation-with-nfn-nmi-jones-1470199734","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
