I've lost count of how many times I've devoured "Memoirs of Extraordinary Delusions and the Madness of Crowds" by Charles Mackay. Who knew tulip bulbs could cause such a ruckus? This book is an absolute gem. It’s like watching a historical reality show where humanity collectively loses its marbles over Beanie Babies and Cabbage Patch Dolls. The term “snake oil” springs to mind when slick advertisers bring out the latest fad, creating mass hysteria and compelling everyone to buy it. Nowadays, these items aren't worth a fraction of their former glory. I must confess, I fell for similar traps with comic books. So, I'm definitely not immune to the allure of the latest craze, no matter how fleeting.
