You don''t need a degree to live life on your own terms: you need economically valuable skills. Ellsberg''s book is the blueprint for entrepreneurial education., "If entrepreneurs were running schools, instead of bureaucrats, schools would be teaching a lot more of the skills and mindsets found in this book. Since they're not, this book is a necessary antidote to a traditional college education." Scott Banister, founder of IronPort Systems, Banister Capital, Michael Ellsberg's book is provocative and wise. Tuition is skyrocketing, job prospects are grim, and the race for bogus credentials has turned into a runaway status competition for positional goods. The Education of Millionaires offers a renegade path for anyone who wants vital skills without the crushing burden of student debt., You don't need a degree to live life on your own terms: you need economically valuable skills.

Gripping and whip-smart, The Education of Millionaires will forever revolutionize your thoughts on the connection between education, career success and prosperity.
