I wouldn’t consider myself to be someone who is materialistic. Most material things are not all that appealing to me. In fact, for the most part I would say that I am a very contented person. I don’t really enjoy shopping because I seldom want to buy anything. It just has no attraction for me. I am happy as long as I have enough food to eat, a place to live, and special people to share life with.
I used to be different. When I was a lot younger I used to want to buy new clothing all the time. I loved to buy sweaters, and whenever I got a chance I bought another one. Foolishly I also used to want to buy the most expensive brand name clothing and shoes. I think the main reason was because I wanted to fit in with everyone else, and it seemed to me that everyone else wore Nike shoes and Mondetta clothing. I also used to spend every last penny on junk food and renting movies.
is by far the most entertaining book I have read so far about entrepreneurship. It has a very matter-of-fact tone and while reading it I feel as if the author is speaking directly to me. The language used is very conversational and easy to follow, although I must admit there is some colorful language throughout the book.
