"Once you have their money, never give it back." -- #1
"Anything worth doing is worth doing for money." -- #13
For centuries these and the other famous Ferengi "Rules of
Acquisition' have been the guiding principles of the galaxy's most
successful entrepreneurs. But the wisdom behind them was not won
without a high cost in lives and latnium. Now at last these inspiring
tales of avaricious Ferengi wresting monetary gain from the jaws of
poverty are available to the profit-hungry across the galaxy!
Ira Steven Behr and Robert Hewitt Wolfe met while working
for the South Downs Holding Company in the sleepy duchy of Rohan (a
relatively obscure country near Liechtenstein}. Their first job
together was to dispose of a dangerous piece of radioactive material
shaped like a plain gold Ring. Unfortunately the Ring once belonged to
a rather irascible mogul (the Chairman of the Board of Barad-dur,
Ltd.) who was determined to get it back. Behr and Wolfe's friendship
grew over the course of their long and peril-fraught journey. Together
they traveled through Eriador, climbed Caradhras Mountain, wandered
the Dimrill Dale, and kayaked the Anduin River, on a seemingly endless
quest across the globe. Finally, broke, tired, and possessed of a
desperate urge to write for television, the two friends tossed the
Ring into a fiery pit (just outside Las Vegas, Nevada} and moved to
Hollywood. Now they spend their time happily eating six meals a day,
combing their furry feet, and writing numerous episodes of the popular
syndicated series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
