MegaWealth™️ shows you how to map your unique wealth path to join the 25,000 self-made families worth over $100 million in the US without needing to come from families with connections, to know people, or be born in Silicon Valley or NYC. The next MegaWealthy shouldn't just be those who knew someone in New York or Silicon Valley and grew up hearing stories of Wall Street, board directors, venture capital, and private equity. You don't need to be from a certain family or region, but you do need to know the paths, start early enough, work hard, and have some talent and luck. You'll be amazed at how much luck and serendipity start flowing your way when you know what to look for (and continue to work hard) when you are confident in the path you have mapped out for yourself! I have mentored many underprivileged students to millions by age 30, witnessed multiple friends from modest backgrounds make $100 million by age 50, and worked closely for years with five billionaires. I share this mindset and experience with you so you'll build confidence and feel like part of the inner circle. This book shows you the way to MegaWealth™️: $100 million and beyond, no matter your background. When people think about wealth, they normally think about investing, yet the most important investment isn't a stock. Your most important investment is your career. In this book, I will show you how to multiply your chances at big wealth by architecting your career and investing in one, cohesive strategy. After writing MegaWealth™️: Careers, the #1 question I got from readers was how to execute on those careers. This book is my answer to this important question. In MegaWealth™️, I show you how to navigate the transitions between the 3Bs (Breaking In, Building Equity, and Breaking Out) and how to build a personal money flywheel (earning simultaneously from building, advising, and investing). MegaWealth™️ shows you how to navigate those paths strategically, focusing on making the best choices during the most critical transitions in your career.

If you want your startup to succeed, you need to understand why startups fail. “Whether you’re a first-time founder or looking to bring innovation into a corporate environment, Why Startups Fail is essential reading.”—Eric Ries, founder and CEO, LTSE, and New York Times bestselling author of The Lean Startup and The Startup Way Why do startups fail? That question caught Harvard Business School professor Tom Eisenmann by surprise when he realized he couldn’t answer it. So he launched a multiyear research project to find out. In Why Startups Fail, Eisenmann reveals his findings: six distinct patterns that account for the vast majority of startup failures. • Bad Bedfellows. Startup success is thought to rest largely on the founder’s talents and instincts. But the wrong team, investors, or partners can sink a venture just as quickly. • False Starts. In following the oft-cited advice to “fail fast” and to “launch before you’re ready,” founders risk wasting time and capital on the wrong solutions. • False Promises. Success with early adopters can be misleading and give founders unwarranted confidence to expand. • Speed Traps. Despite the pressure to “get big fast,” hypergrowth can spell disaster for even the most promising ventures. • Help Wanted. Rapidly scaling startups need lots of capital and talent, but they can make mistakes that leave them suddenly in short supply of both. • Cascading Miracles. Silicon Valley exhorts entrepreneurs to dream big. But the bigger the vision, the more things that can go wrong. Drawing on fascinating stories of ventures that failed to fulfill their early promise—from a home-furnishings retailer to a concierge dog-walking service, from a dating app to the inventor of a sophisticated social robot, from a fashion brand to a startup deploying a vast network of charging stations for electric vehicles—Eisenmann offers frameworks for detecting when a venture is vulnerable to these patterns, along with a wealth of strategies and tactics for avoiding them. A must-read for founders at any stage of their entrepreneurial journey, Why Startups Fail is not merely a guide to preventing failure but also a roadmap charting the path to startup success.

A landmark textbook on development economics The study of development in low-income countries is attracting more attention around the world than ever before. Yet until now there has been no comprehensive text that incorporates the recent huge strides made in the subject. Development Economics does precisely that in a clear, rigorous, and elegant fashion. Debraj Ray, one of the most accomplished theorists in development economics today, presents in this book a synthesis of recent and older literature in the field and raises important questions that will help to set the agenda for future research. He covers such vital subjects as theories of economic growth, economic inequality, poverty and undernutrition, population growth, trade policy, and the markets for land, labor, and credit. A common point of view underlies the treatment of these subjects: that much of the development process can be understood by studying factors that impede the efficient and equitable functioning of markets. Diverse topics such as the new growth theory, moral hazard in land contracts, information-based theories of credit markets, and the macroeconomic implications of economic inequality come under this common methodological umbrella. The book takes the position that there is no single cause for economic progress, but that a combination of factors—among them the improvement of physical and human capital, the reduction of inequality, and institutions that enable the background flow of information essential to market performance—consistently favor development. Ray supports his arguments throughout with examples from around the world. The book assumes a knowledge of only introductory economics and explains sophisticated concepts in simple, direct language, keeping the use of mathematics to a minimum. Development Economics will be the definitive textbook in this subject for years to come. It will prove useful to researchers by showing intriguing connections among a wide variety of subjects that are rarely discussed together in the same book. And it will be an important resource for policy-makers, who increasingly find themselves dealing with complex issues of growth, inequality, poverty, and social welfare.
