some quality stories and lessons

some quality stories and lessons throughout

I like how he gave entry / exit details but would have appreciated even further information regarding EBITDA growth strategies or the timing of cycles.

A great book on Bill's adventures in the Australian private equity industry. This book contains alot of investment insights, tips and tricks, and qualities he looks for when hiring private equity professionals. A great read for anyone who is interested in finance or the investing field.
