The author grew up in a working-class family, he always dreamed of someone discovering him. Fortunately for him, he was enough for himself to build an empire of 5 stars resorts on the shores of Mexico. But his journey didn't start big, he started with working in minimum wage factories and such. As much as I learned about the art of building a business, I enjoyed the author’s journey immensely. It's quite fascinating how his dreams took him to places and his zest for success made him a winner even with various obstacles. The author rightly said if plans lined up fails from A to B, one should go above and beyond even if it takes to plan E. A memorable learning experience, I highly recommend it.

I found it fascinating that the author describes how many people go through college and are still not prepared for life. He lists nine things that should be taught in school. Among them are money management, picking the right career and building self-confidence. I think the clincher of his book is that success boils down to 90% preparation and 10% opportunity. Success is for everyone who commits to preparing for it and to using the opportunities as they come.
Good book if you are inspired by and like to read about people's success. This book is the life story of a man who grew up in a plain and average Rhode Island family, and turned his life into a ritzy glittery success. A good third of this book is about his childhood and childhood stories and adventures. I did enjoy reading this book, because it's always interesting to see how these ultra rich people got to where they are. A developer's name is spelled Don Koll in one part and Don Kole in another, so there's a bit of carelessness here, but I guess the point of the book is to talk about the author's success so it doesn't really matter. There's also a bit of business and life advice sprinkled throughout the book, but mostly the book is sharing the author's life story and experience.
