Management
Consulting: A Complete Guide to the Industry |

The
book I would have written had I not been in prison
for the last three years. A very funny first-person
account of Year One at Stanford. A
great book that every MBA applicant should read.

As
the subtitle says, eBoys is "the first
inside account of venture capitalists at
work." It's the story of how
Benchmark Capital, a venture capital firm in Silicon
Valley, discovered and funded eBay, Priceline and
Webvan. It's one of Amazon's best selling
books.

The 7
Habits of Highly Effective People |

Greed
isn't just good, it's great. Wall Street
is corporate raiding the way it was meant to be. Invite your friends over, get real drunk
and pop in the tape. If you can't enjoy this film
