I know these Humble book bundles don't always go down overly well, but I thought this would be a nice little read for anybody wishing to start their own company.
I did about 7 years ago, and to be honest I have never looked back. Admittedly it's not always as easy as one would think from the get go, there are obviously ups and downs with said path, but reaping the benefits of your own hard work through your own company really is worth while.
I appreciate the books seem to be Technology focused, but there are probably a lot of tips and advice you could take from this.
I really do hope this helps :)

@BuzzDuraband why don't you tell us in your words how you started a company, and the ups and downs you've experienced? We'll probably learn more from your mistakes than from a "generic" book. Thanks

In his own words "I opened an ebay account, I took some pics of stuff, I listed stuff, people bought it. I made a few quid a month"

Great bundle Buzz, this should pair itself nicely with the programming/hacking bundle from a while back!
P.S. if I get rich I'll cut you in :smile:
