You must have heard about recent release of the book “How to to become billionaire by selling NOTHING” This book is written by blogger Mr.Aditya Magal. He runs blog on the name of “Rakesh Jhunjhunwala”.
As the name of rakesh jhunjhunwala is involved I tried to find out how this book can help our readers. This book is work of fiction about entrepreneur who wanted to sell a product called NOTHING. He approached billionaire Rakesh Jhunjhunwala who dismissed his idea and gave Rs 1 lakh asking him to seek help of psychiatric. The Entrepreneur invested this money to manufacture nothing and assign some stake to Rakesh Jhunjhunwala in the company as a sign of gratitude. Stock of this company climbs high as filmstar, politician displays interest in nothing. At last company was sued by other company because of idea copy.
Learning from this book:-
- Only invest in business that you understand.
- Entrepreneurs sees opportunity in everything even in “NOTHING”.
- Entrepreneurs always stays hungry and foolish (making money by foolish idea -selling Nothing)
- Idea should be original entrepreneur should never copy idea of others
