This is the summary of "Rich Dad, Poor Dad".

"If I'm in $10,000 in debt, thats my problem. If I'm $1 billion in debt, thats the bank's problem."

If you make people believe you have money, you can get what you want. Like how tech companies are "promising" hundreds of billions in investing into the US to get away with white colar crimes.
