Simply put, this book is about my personal ideas in economics. It’s about lessons learned from my father, J. Paul Getty, as well as my own experiences. I love the free market and the chance to prove ideas, and the fact that innovation is changing the world as we know it.
While science tends to predict the rule from the data, philosophy tends to reverse the direction. The bottom-up scientific method doesn’t get far in economics because market data reveal little about human capital, which is some two-thirds to four-fifths of all capital in most judgments including mine, beyond its rental cost in pay. The best economics can do is feel its way in the dark from assumption to prediction, as a rule, and then look for ways to scrape together enough market data for a test.
This book covers my personal theories about the following topics:
- Bank Devolution
- Depreciation Theory
- Free Growth Theory
- Inflation-Protected Dollars (DIPS)
- Market Money
- Next Generation Theory
- Depreciation Recovery Rule
- Risk Theory
- Output Rule
- Pay Rule
As you read this book, you may or may not agree with me, and that’s okay by me. But perhaps you will discover a new perspective on an old theory.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
