Rob Berger, a litigation attorney and founder of The Dough Roller website, wrote the article “Top 100 Money Quotes of All Time” for Forbes.com on April 30, 2014. The last quote was:
“100. The best thing money can buy is financial freedom. –Me”
“Me” meant “Rob Berger.” The quotation has been frequently cited on Twitter, with “Me” unfortunately still receiving some credit. The saying (with credit to Rob Berger) has also been printed on a poster.
