Work the System is a terrific book. It is not a light Sunday afternoon read though. It is involved and can be technical in spots. However, if you want to systemitize your life (and reap the benefits of the system) it is a terrific book.
If The E-Myth was the tip of the iceberg, Work the System is the rest of the iceberg. It’s really good stuff!
Lou,
Good find – I downloaded it after glancing through the reviews on Amazon.com:
http://www.amazon.com/Work-System-Simple-Mechanics-Working/dp/1929774877/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1283017332&sr=8-1
The book has five stars based on 64 customer reviews – Sounds like a worthwhile read to me!
Thanks for the tip,
Matt
Guys – I’ve heard you mention Sam’s book before, but I’m glad you brought it up again. Impressive stuff so far! Thanks!
Just curious guys. You mentioned in your last episode that you were about to buy AAPL again because it was approaching 250. It is now recovering from 240. How did you guys do? Did you buy at 250 and hang on? Did you sell to early?
Micah,
As of Sept. 2, 2010, we have held onto AAPL at $250. Dan (talk skinny guy) wanted to sell early, but the group decided to hang on. We knew that Apple was releasing a new product in the upcoming days, and we were hopeful that stock would bump and it did, back up to around $250.
oh good. I made some good money off apple back in 2005. I wish I had just bought and held on. I made a couple grand as it grew from about 50 to 80 but if I had held on until now I could have made 40-50K. Hind sight is always 20/20
Hind sight is alway 20/20…ahhhh to be Marty McFly for just a day!
