review 1: Η ιστορία του Kevin O'Leary, δισεκατομμυριούχου, δράκου στο Dragon's Den και καρχαρία στο Shark tank.Αν υπάρχει κάτι που είναι εμφανές από αυτή την αυτοβιογραφία, είναι το πόσο συγκεντρωμένος ήταν και είναι ο Kevin στην ζωή του. Ήθελε να βγάλει λεφτά. Αυτό. Και το έχει καταφέρει περίφημα.Μαλάκας για κάποιους, καργιόλης για άλλους, δεν είναι φιλικός. Ξεκαθαρίζει ότι τον νοιάζει πως μπορεί να βγάλει λεφτά για εκείνον και τους συνεργάτες του, χωρίς ν... moreα αναλώνεται σε αλτρουισμούς.Αρκετά ευχάριστο ανάγνωσμα, με διάφορες συμβουλές. Δεν περίμενα να το πω, αλλά και η προσθήκη πολλών φωτογραφιών από την ζωή του Κεβιν, κάνει την ανάγνωση πιο εύκολη.
review 2: What a jerk!!! Ha, just kidding. For anyone who's watched Dragon's Den or Shark Tank has seen "Mr. Wonderful" be a jerk to people pitching their ideas. After watching Shark Tank now for a couple of seasons I've got to say that Kevin O'Leary does start to grow on you, particularly when even I can see the that someone has brought in a dog of an idea. So after reading his book I now understand why he comes off as an asshole to some. Simple put, he tells it like it is. Actually, I don't think he's a jerk, he simply doesn't sugar coat the truth. If someone has a bad idea he tells them so. People who come up with an idea for something will treat that something as their baby and will take it personally if someone tells them that their baby is stupid. Yea, of course they would get pissed. Some ideas and products are simply bad ideas.Mr. O'Leary has certainly had his own failures but learned from them to the point of correction to still come out on top. He describes his journey from building a small business out of his house into a large corporation, and into TV history telling people that some of their ideas suck and some ideas are fantastic. If you are a fan of business, a fan of Dragon's Den or Shark Tank, then you will enjoy this book. less
