Tar en Sissener: He steals books for 50,000 kroner
Founder Andreas Jebsen will champion the story of Norway as a successful country.
Andreas Jebsen, a Norwegian entrepreneur, investor, and economist, has given a book to every member of the Norwegian parliament, titled "Vårt rike land" (Our Rich Country), written by former central bank governor Øystein Olsen and economic history professor Eivind Thomassen. The book presents a positive view of Norway's economy, contrasting with the negative view presented in Martin Bech Holte's book "Landet som ble for rikt" (The Country That Became Too Rich).
Jebsen spent around 50,000 kroner on the books, aiming to promote optimism about Norway's economy among politicians. This move is a nod to a similar stunt by investor Jan Petter Sissener, who gave away Bech Holte's book to parliament members last year, spending 90,000 kroner.
