I bought your book a few months back and I told you I would give you my comments. I think that you provided some on the most clear thinking concise business advice that I have seen in a long time. I gave a copy to the Gordon Gee, President of The Ohio State University that's how well done it is.

I received the copy of your book as ordered. Read it right away. It is the most practical and useful business guide I can recall reading.

. . . he gave me a copy of your Fortune and Freedom
book. I must admit that it sat on my nightstand for many months because I thought that the book wouldn't apply to me. Last week I was about to move the book to my bookshelf when I started flipping through
it. I then read and finished your book in 2 days. I found a lot of your opinions insightful and helpful. I really agreed with your thoughts on knowing where you want to go and preforming a skills inventory audit and then determining what steps you need to take to get you to the next level.

Your book is fantastic - it is hard to put down. ...you have produced something extremely rare: business-oriented advice that is easy to read, compelling reading, and full of practical suggestions. The personal stories add something that allows the reader to indentify with the message; excellent.

This book is a wonderful primer for young people thinking about making a living. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Jim has lived what he writes. I will recommend it to anyone who asks my advice.

This is a smooth and enjoyable read, with insights for experienced people as well as those just starting. Jim's skills as a strategist really come through -- I love his conclusion that he was probably going to survive the Harvard Business School because he spotted 10 other students more likely to get the boot before he did!

“Fortune & Freedom”, what a great guide for nonprofits! I loved your Chapters 11-12 regarding the “deal.” They were so reminiscent of what we have just been going through.
