I found the biographical elements of Wyly's from poverty to multi-millions to be fascinating reading. However, the sections where he goes into great detail regarding business deals made my eyes glaze over. Lessons learned - pursue your passions, work hard - very hard, and hook up with rising stars. This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers. As others have pointed out, Wyly was more lucky than clever. As someone who hopes to one day be an entrepreneur, I didn't feel there was enough substance in the book for me to follow. This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers. I liked reading this book, but I found it to be formulaic and repetitive. However, I respect the drive and vision of Sam Wyly as presented in the book, especially his foresight in technology. I think his story could be presented in a better way, but I am uncertain about how this could be done. If one were looking to define an average or middle of the pack level of expectations for an entreprenurial success story, this book would likely fit the bill. This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers. I had some expectations before reading this book, but I'm not really sure what to walk away with. It's always nice to hear someone rags-to-riches story, but there were times I thought Wyly was more lucky then clever. As someone who hopes to one day be an entrepreneur, I didn't feel there was enough substance in the book for me to follow. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

I had no idea who this guy was when I picked up the book. He's a world class entrepreneur and a class act. Book was rather episodic/formulaistic but does give a good peek into the mind of one really successful entrepreneur.
