Arme rijken -- Toon Kortooms boekenplein Due to a series ofUnlike many of his well known novels (such as Beekman and Beekman), Poor Rich is a collection of 19 short stories and anecdotes. In it, Toon Kortooms looks back on his encounters with millionaires and multi millionaires also known as "rich scoundrels" by common folk.
