Victor Menasce
About this episode

Our book this month is a brand new book that was just released two weeks ago called “How to Make a few Billion Dollars “ by Brad Jacobs.

Brad is a serial entrepreneur at the highest level having built multiple multi-billion dollar companies in succession. When I heard his story it became obvious that he had something to teach me.

Throughout the book he takes the reader through his thought process. He talks about how he had to rewire his brain to reject the social conditioning.
