Casper Blom er en ung mand med bunkevis af gå-på-mod og vilje. I en tidlig alder startede han sin første forretning, hvor han solgte brugte golfbolde og siden da er det gået stærkt! "Just f*ing do it!" er Caspers selvbiografi, hvori han skriver om den rejse, som de sidste ti år har været. Bogen fungerer, foruden som en personlig beretning, også som en opfordring til andre unge, som ønsker at få succes som iværksættere. I "Just f*ing do it" skriver Casper nemlig om både opture, nedture, kampen med at få iværksætteri på skemaet og meget mere.
This man had the audacity of literally calling himself humble several times in this book. Completely ignoring the fact that his privileged life has been filled with financial support from family and a range of other opportunities that most people don't even dare to dream of. Yes, he has drive and the willingness to see a project from start to finish which are admirable values, but certainly not enough to justify filling an entire (to be honest rather poorly written) book with that amount of arrogant talk. I also had to stop reading the quotes made by friends and family (whereof there were an abundance on every single page) because they honestly made me want to gag. If that sort of presentation makes you happy, by all means go for it - but do not repeatedly call yourself humble then. Absolutely lacking in self-reflection, but filled with enough self-praise for an entire life.
The showcases of local Danish initiatives encouraging young people to become entrepreneurs are the most valuable features of this book. At this point, however, 10 years later, many of them are outdated.
As for the advice given, most of it is very generalized and based on individual experiences. Thanks for sharing, I guess. Try again in 30 years when those impulsive thoughts about h a v i n g to make m o n e y might have calmed down a bit.
Letlæst bog af iværksætteren Casper Blom. Lidt tyndbenet, hvilket nok skyldes forfatterens unge alder, men stadigt en spændende og hurtig introduktion til glæderne og udfordringerne ved iværksætterlivet.
