‘Shocking and Laugh-out-loud funny’
If you’ve ever watched Dragon’s Den or The Apprentice then you may be under the impression that being an entrepreneur is exciting, glamorous and sexy.
Well… not quite.
Welcome to the Entrepreneur Hub, where wannabe business-tycoons gather, sweat and fall over in the hope of becoming self-made millionaires.
Take that image of young, suited, blackberry-endowed entrepreneurs dashing through Canary Wharf and Silicon Valley closing big corporates deals out of your head.
Instead, replace it with ragged T-shirt wearing young’uns stealing tea bags from the kitchen, trying to find a date using LinkedIn, fighting over desks, busking on the floor, avoiding bankruptcy and doing a bizarre trance dance in the middle of the office.
Confessions of an Entrepreneur is a rare, honest and humorous insight into the daily life of a young business woman.

Private, mysterious and some say sinister, 79 year-old Bernie Ecclestone criss-crosses the globe in his private jet mixing with celebrities, statesmen and sporting heroes. Ecclestone's success has not just been to create a multi-billion pound global business but to resist repeated attempts to snatch the glittering prize from his control.
Ecclestone has never before revealed how he graduated from selling second-hand cars in London's notorious Warren Street to become the major player he is today. He has finally decided to reveal his secrets: the deals, the marriages, the disasters and the successes on race tracks, in Downing Street, in casinos, on yachts and in the air. Surprisingly, he is telling his life's story to Tom Bower, described by Ecclestone as 'The Undertaker' -- the man who buries reputations - and has given him access to all his friends and enemies. All have been told by Ecclestone, 'Tell him the truth, good or bad.'
The result is a unique story of a simple, driven man who unlike shady tycoons offers an intriguing insight into the sport, business and, above all, the human spirit.
'I'll accept your facilities,' Bower told Ecclestone, 'but if I find evidence of wrongdoing or hear any criticism, it will all be published.' After a brief moment, Ecclestone replied, 'Tom, I'm no angel.'

DETAILS
Like most marketers, you have probably made a little money from lots of effort but not enough to “give up the day job” and live that dream. Building websites, writing articles, affiliate marketing, building backlinks – they all rely on continuous work to either build traffic or generate a product or service. It's hard work and can be soul destroying. Sound familiar?
What you need is a business model which can be easily learned, gives instant cash flow and is easy to carry out. It should also provide a means of providing continuing income without substantial work on your part.
The good news is that such a business model exists. That model is buying pre-existing websites which are already earning money. The trick is to buy the right websites and to carry out the required due diligence before you buy. This book shows you how - step by step.
Lazy Passive Earnings is a straightforward guide which shows you the step by step process and explains how you can generate an independent income quickly and easily with minimal risk by buying income producing websites. The advantage of this is that you save yourself the pain of building a site, adding content, driving traffic and then trying to monetize it.
BOOK EXTRACT
"This is a book with a difference. My aim is simple. To tell the story, as it happened, of how I created an income stream for life. It can be your story too, with some work and the right approach.
The account is no frills, if you want bullshit then put this book down and go elsewhere.....the internet is full of people feeding lies and half truths to extract your hard earned cash.
This account tells what happened, warts and all, when I decided to create myself an income stream which was sufficient to replace my full time job. Read it and use your brain to put together your own plan.
Let me start by outlining why I wanted to do this and what prompted my actions.
During my late forties I started to realize that what I wanted most in life was the freedom to do what I wanted to do when I wanted to do it. In my case that meant more time with family and friends, swimming, playing pool, travelling to warmer destinations, eating out, reading and working.
Now that last item might come as a surprise but let me explain. Work for me means doing something that is challenging, enjoyable and which allows me to support my family in a decent manner. The problem was that I did not want to spend up to half the available hours each week just working. This left too little time for the other enjoyable activities that I described earlier.
I started to dabble with internet marketing a few years ago and through a combination of writing, website building and affiliate marketing I earned around $5000 over three years. Not really life changing income but enough to"

Hilary Devey is one of our most remarkable entrepreneurs and was an instant sensation when she appeared on Dragon's Den. Now, in this powerful memoir, she reveals the full story of her turbulent life. She describes how her father's bankruptcy sparked a fierce determination in her not to end up the same way. When her father started working in the pub trade, Hilary did too - at the age of seven - and has been grafting hard ever since. She built her own company, Pall-Ex, which today has an annual turnover of £100 million, never giving up even when she was so broke she couldn't afford to give her son a Christmas dinner. Admitting to terrible taste in men, Hilary opens up about her marriages and the destructive relationship she thought would break her. She tells how she faced a mother's worst nightmare, her son's heroin addiction, and fought back from a stroke that almost killed her. Bold as Brass is candid, brave and laced with the warmth and humour that have made Hilary so popular. Ultimately, it's as inspirational as the woman herself.
