The Accounting Game
Recommended“It's too bad, by the way, that more entrepreneurs don't have a grasp of basic accounting. Do you remember the book? You're pretty young, but it was out maybe 20 years ago and I think it's still around called The Accounting Game.”

Zero to One
Discussed“That's why I think we're going to see more short books. We're starting to see that, you know, zero to one, that type of thing. I think we're going to see more of that. And that was a very good book because it made you think.”
