Hi there, I am Larry Chiang--I had friends who were in credit card difficulty and decided to do something about it. I started collecting deep underground credit knowledge (duck) into a controversial site: www.Duck9.com.
It breaks-down the mysterious FICO score and graduates people with a FICO in the 90th percentile.
SECRET: The key is to make the first 24 interactions with the FICO grid PERFECT… email me and I’ll send you the 101 secrets/tips or you can explore the secrets yourself by clicking on the ducks butt at duck9.
I wrote the NY Times bestseller: "What They Don't Teach You At Stanford Business School". Its a book about sales, entrepreneurship and character compassing people. My mentor, Mark McCormack wrote, "What They Don't Teach You At Stanford Business School"
My writing centers around mentorship: whether you’re building a business or improving your credit score, it is easier to do with a mentor.
One of my proudest achievements was to testify in Congress on behalf of the financial services industry. Congressman Tom Campbell also wrote the foreword for my last book, "Internet Marketing Secrets" that I co-edited with Gerri Detweiler.
I try to hide the fact that I am old—thank goodness I am Chinese cuz my wrinkles aren’t here yet. When I crash campus gyms to play basketball, I lace my hair with mucho product so people don’t see my grey hair.
In addition to playing basketball, I love to write, coach entrepreneurs, and sneak into dorm cafeterias. Invite me to your house for dinner and I’ll entertain with stories of credit… my email is chiang9@duck9.com
Interests
Basketball, parties and after-parties. I also like making fun of VCs
Disclosure: I am both Toilet Paper Entrepreneur vs Media Darling Entrepreneur.
I loved this book it does what I try to do inside of Stanford Engineering 145: Boil down the first 17 steps on your way to first base. First base = a nice single in the game of entrepreneurship.
Instead of abstract theory there are to-do items listed in the book. Entrepreneurship for both Toilet Paper Entrepreneurs and Media Darling Entrepreneurs both execute. Toilet paper is not all that sexy but that is the point of the book... getting past the sexy Media Darling Entrepreneur that you read about and focusing on the down, dirty and fun aspect to accomplishing the first couple steps… Read more
I live in the heart of silicon valley and moved here for creative reasons.
In 2003, I got this book and let it sit on my shelf until I heard about a Y combinator event at Stanford last year.
I read it before the event where Paul was going to speak and have read it 3x since. It reminds me why I live in palo alto and why I get results by combining hacker, Type A thoughts with left brain, artsy.
Mr. Graham's book will be quoted in my book, "What They Don't Teach You At Stanford Business School" in Chapter 14: Duality. http://www.whattheydontteachyouatstanfordbusinessschool.com/
I got this book as part of "Birthing of Giants". It's a three year retreat for entrepreneurs held for a week in the summer. You get a reading list and they are kind enough to send you books.
It sat in the box until Charles Kremer came to speak to our class. What he presented made the material so clear.
Before, I'd set barriers as to what was comfortable from a cash management point of view. My goals would actually cause pain when they'd be reached.
The relationships between balance sheet, income statement and cash statement are clear. "Beginning position" +/-non cash part of transaction +/- cash… Read more
