Book Recommmendation: You Call the Shots

[werbl]

"You Call the Shots" by Cameron Johnson is his chronicle of starting and selling multiple businesses, all by his 21st birthday. The whole book is basically one long success story that you might read here on the Fastlane forums.

Cameron starts out selling Beanie Babies on Ebay with $50. He takes you along his journey, sharing every success and failure, offering tons of advice, details and resources along the way. There is also a great appendix at the end.

The book is a very easy read and was tough for me to put down. Check it out on Amazon...
