The Periodic Table (of Lawyers)

I’ve spent my adult life in Big Law, but I’m not on this earth to help the rich get richer. I’m here for the wanna-be’s. I want to help the climbers, the strivers, the innovators, the world changers. That’s why I wrote Birth to Buyout and that’s why I’ve…

Wouldn’t you like to know who doesn’t want your business?

I’m glad Governor Jan Brewer struck the Ok-To-Hate-Gay law. But, I’m still sad that there isn’t a dependable mechanism for gay-hating business owners to tell us gays to stay away. Not only would I stay away, but I would delight in the Yelp commentary.  The free market could then…

The Free Market Isn’t God

The Free Market Isn’t God.  Those five words, strung together, seem obvious, right? Except they are the opposite of what the 1% have taught you and me for the last 40 years. The 1%, the Koch Brothers and their stooges teach us that the “free market” is God –…

Healthcare.gov hysteria revealed biggest threat to American dream: Fear of Failure

If you want to achieve and earn real money, you have to be willing to risk and to fail.  But, today failure is a terminal disease, not a transition. Nowhere is this clearer than in the reaction to the early roll-out of healthcare.gov. Healthcare.gov is just a website. A…
