The $100 Startup: By Chris Guillebeau Book review
The $100 Startup: Reinvent the Way You Make a Living, Do What You Love, and Create a New Future
The $100 Startup: Reinvent the Way You Make a Living, Do What You Love, and Create a New Future
From the author who traveled the world in ten years and interviewed hundreds of people who had the braveness to pursue their dreams.
The book gives examples of many people who have decided - or even went by accident - to the situation of having a simple product they can offer to the world, then after they've got their first sale they knew they had something special in their lives.

Do what you love
The book has a clear message to the reader :
Do what you love. You can grow then grow a business or get to your target of freedom.
Either you are a designer, a teacher or even love to cook something, do whatever you love and keep doing it. Keep in mind that you will get to your target by doing it.
Advises are not always good
The other message I got from this book is:
Advises are not always good. Some advises are just bad in nature.
One of the people who has been interviewed in the book says:
Most people don't have their own businesses. And a significant percentage of them don't like the idea of you getting out from the nine-to-five daily job life they have.
Unlike many books on entrepreneurship, this book takes you to the point by showing hundreds of live examples from real-life entrepreneurs who went through the way.
You don't have to get into dept
You don't need to start with big investment. There is no need to get in dept or get a big part from your life savings just to start your own business.
Many people interviewed in this book has just started with about $100 or a little more.
Start as early as you can
You can stand still in the point of analysis and planning forever. But it's better that you take quick actions towards what you love and benefit from.
About my experience
I've completed the book in eight days. I've been reading it and also listening to it through the TTS Text-to-Speech software on my cellphone which has been my dream for years and now it has been fulfilled by using Android Software.
You can also listen to it for free on Audible using the free trial that allows you to listen to two audio books for free on Audible.
The next book I've started is a new book from the same author Chris Guillebeau
