2007 Personal MBA Manifesto Released
Filed Under Books, Entrepreneurship & Business | Leave a Comment
The revised and updated 2007 Personal MBA Manifeso and Recommended Reading List has been released to the public! Josh Kaufman and I met through our involvement in the Cincinnati Entrepreneur Meetup Group. He is an amazing individual and his Personal MBA program is a must for any one interested in increasing their knowledge of business. Here is a brief description from the site:
Business schools don’t have a monopoly on worldly wisdom. If you’re serious about learning advanced business principles, the Personal MBA can help. The Personal MBA recommended reading list is the tangible result of hundreds of hours of reading and research, and features only the very best books the business press has to offer. So skip the fancy diploma and $150,000 loan – you can get a world-class business education simply by reading these books.
Unfortunately, I didn’t meet Josh until I was halfway through my MBA at Northern Kentucky University. Luckily though, I was able to supplement that education though my reading of the PMBA books. Many topics just aren’t covered in most business schools, so the books fill in a lot of big gaps. Incidentally, a lot of the books actually teach certain concepts better than some of my teachers could. Ultimately I am glad that I had the opportunity to attain an MBA, but for those who don’t have the time, money, or inclination, the PMBA is an outstanding alternative.

Why I’m Reading It
After reading Trent Hamm’s post about the 10 books that changed his life, I was immediately intrigued by Your Money or Your Life. I had heard about the book in the past, but this post finally convinced me to grab a copy.
Although my wife and I have good control over our finances, I still search for new insights and attempt to further improve upon that control. I’m hoping this book will introduce me to some new concepts and help me hone my understanding of money and how it relates to life in general.
