| Summary | "My Adventures with Your Money" by George Graham Rice is a memoir written in the early 20th century. It chronicles the author's experiences in the world of speculation and finance during the mining boom in Goldfield, Nevada, and beyond. Rice provides an insightful commentary on the gambling instincts of the American public, highlighting the manipulative practices of speculators and their impact on both individual investors and the market as a whole. The opening of the memoir introduces the author in March 1901, at a low point in his life, with just $7.30 to his name and unemployed after a stint as a reporter. Through a conversation with a friend, he conceives the idea for a betting information service named "Maxim & Gay." He starts with an advertisement for a supposed winning horse, which propels him into a whirlwind of success. The initial days see him earn substantial amounts through clever marketing and the allure of gambling, setting the stage for his deeper exploration of the speculative world and the consequences that accompany it.
