Book: Learn From Successful Entrepreneurs Part 1

Monday, 10 August 2009

It was the 1st part of the "Learn From Successful Entrepreneurs" sold to me by a worker, at the publishing company, who answered my call. There are no more copies on sale and no more inpublication. We met at an LRT station. She came with a colleague and I went with Yean. We have never met each other.

It was her personal copy. Although the cover is stained the inside is still good. Initially I asked if she could lower her price. She told me to give me whatever I could paid her. In the end I just paid her the full price (MR10) because the contents is okay and that is more important.
