The $100 Startup: Fire Your Boss, Do What You Love And Work Better To Live More
by Chris Guillebeau
Publisher: Pan Macmillan (2012)
Book Review :
A nice book to get started with a startup
Summary of my review: I would give 8/10 to this book. Would recommend to anyone who wants to get started with startups. Caution though - this is not a detailed account of startups
Opinion: A very fresh and welcome read in the startup segment by Chris. What I loved about and what this book is definitely not compared to few other startup books that i have read is that this is not a professional scientific, clerical book on staartups which give you a picture of each startup becoming a multi-million dollar business and then gives you ways to do it which while reading excites you but, maybe not possible practically.
This book starts with the basics of how to get started and in my opinion that is actually the way to get started. Imagining on the first day of starting up that your venture is gonna be facebook 2 then you are talking like my just born kid is going to be the next Usian Bolt.
For a change, I was really pleased to see Chris provide stories of the startup heroes who are everyday normal people like you and me. Compared to other reading material I was happy to see that non-Harvard/Staford/Wharton/IIT/IIM people can also do it and make more then good money - that for me was the biggest driver to keep reading this book.
