Financial Pictogrigm, Money Matters, and that sort of stuff...

Rick --

I just finished reading "The E-Myth" by Gerber. Really good stuff and I could see exactly where my previous business fell down. Could also relate to his "prototype" model which many think is too restrictive but would save many hassles. I had experienced the "owners manual" in a business I managed once and it was so helpful.

That business closed (not due to my management!) and the last thing we did was burn those manuals in the barbeque pit in my backyard. About 3 o'clock the next morning fire trucks where buzzing up and down our street. Turned out it was the smoke from those manuals! Not relevant to the discussion but funny. Not so funny at the time though.

So thanks for mentioning that book. I think it should be read far by everyone. Unfortunately I think it's lessons will only be understood by those who have been through it already.
