I had an entrepreneurship class at school. The teacher was an absolute fan of this kind of books and would assign them as mandatory reading.

As I could not help but find most of it intellectually insulting (sorry to be so blunt), I decided to give it a positive twist and review them as products themselves rather than as useful content. I wrote about how the book identified popular wishes like financial success and applied biases like appeals to authority to provide a believable path forward for the reader.

Man did he not like it, I think it was my lowest grade ever :)



Absolutely beautiful, I wish I could see his face!


You tried to move his cheese!
