...unattractive side; it makes him unreasonable or just plain self-aggrandizing. "He has the qualities and defects of a child," says SMH engineer Jacques Muller, who actually designed the Swatch. "He thinks everything is possible. Unfortunately, everything is | not always possible." Says Hayek's rival and ex-deputy Dr. Ernst Thomke, who claims to have originated the Swatch concept in 1979: "He has to be the big boss, alone, and can never share opinions.

"He's already paid for 18 years of college for five kids, and he was even unemployed for one of those years," says Kurt. "I asked him, 'How did you do it?' " Easy, replies Frank: "I wasn't that frugal. We bought our first home in 1961 for $19,500, a brand-new three-bedroom in Jacksonville, Florida, with $5,000 down, and we just traded up, paying off loans with rapidly inflating housing prices."
