Read the interview: Robert Hajnal
In Robert Hajnal’s words:
[Books I recommend] For growing a business:
- Steve Jobs’ biography by Walter Isaacson;
- Call to action – Bryan Eisenberg, Jeffrey Eisenberg & Lisa T. Davis;
- Get to the top on Google – David Viney;
- Losing my Virginity – Richard Branson;
- The Snowball – Alice Schroeder.
In Robert Hajnal’s words:
Robert Kiyosaki's “Rich Dad Poor Dad” stopped me from making a mistake and buying a car - because it wasn’t an asset. It also convinced me to invest in shares, while the books “Rule no.1” and “The Snowball” taught me how to choose them.
