註釋
As a highly successful entrepreneur who has been involved in a steady stream of successful business ventures, Wyly could have felt compelled simply to write the usual autobiography. Instead he also shares with the reader a set of universal lessons that he learned throughout his life and that he adroitly weaves into his story. Starting with his experiences growing up on a Depression-era cotton farm in Louisiana through his early days as salesman for IBM and Honeywell, Wyly lures the reader into his tale. The stories about his role leading companies such as Sterling Software, Bonanza Steakhouses, Michaels Stores, and Green Mountain Energy, among others, will also capture the attention of the general business reader. His description of his involvement in these ventures and the lessons he learned therein, when combined with business advice gleaned from years of interaction with such leading capitalists as Ross Perot, Michael Milken, and T. Boone Pickens, help to make this a solid business memoir.
