Summary: Needed Inspiration
Comment: I am CEO of what I hope to someday be a fortune 500 company. Its very hard to find mentors or people who can identify with the struggles of being a young entrepreneur. This book served as a form of inspiration at a time when it was truly needed. Its hard being a pioneer in an industry predominated by established Giants. Everybody has a opinion of you and you are constantly being scrutinized and held to different standards than your counterparts. Thank You Mr. Pulley for writing this book. It was informative and will help me to keep my eyes on the prize despite adversity. H. Terrell CEO Common Ground USA www.jimmiehatz.com

Summary: Hearsay, speculation and gossip
Comment: This book was a waste of time, as are most unauthorized biographies. Mr. Pulley could have better spent his time researching a topic about which he could have gathered all of the facts. I find most unauthorized biographies full of hearsay, speculation and gossip--designed to appeal to the masses so that the author can make quick money. Don't waste your money on this book, and don't allow Brett Pulley's expose' to determine your opinion of one of the most respected African Americans in the world. If you feel you must read it, then borrow a copy from the library.

I admire Mr. Johnson because he had a dream, he laid out his plans, and he pursued his goals. As an individual, he is entitled to his privacy and he has certainly earned respect in the corporate world.

Summary: It's not too late for Bob.
Comment: This book was very candid and well written. It shows that Bob primary goal was to build a business, and become rich and he succeed. The idea that he sold it as a media for African American pride is what got him in trouble. Pulley shows that it was "strictly business" Mr. Johnson need not so defensive, what he created made him rich, this book shows that wealth does not equal respect? Nevertheless he has $3 billion dollars and hopefully plenty of time to write a final chapter of which he can be proud
