    In The 50th Law, hip hop and pop culture icon 50 Cent (aka Curtis Jackson) joins forces with Robert Greene, best-selling author of The 48 Laws of Power, to write a "bible" for success in life and work based on a single principle: fear nothing. With intimate stories from 50 Cent's life on the streets and in the boardroom as he rose to fame after the release of his album Get Rich or Die Tryin', as well as examples of others who have overcome adversity through understanding and practicing the 50th Law.

    Story

    This is my first "Robert Greene" book. I would say this is a must read for anyone whom wants a better understanding of what Curtis Jackson aka 50 Cent experienced. Honestly, if you grew up through the 80's you'll have a better appreciation for this book. This was the time of the street hustlers for people now who are in their late 30's or early 40's. It will hit home for many as it did for me. Those of use who are "out" of the hood mentally will appreciate being brought back to it within the pages. You won't be disappointed.

    Story

    I view this book as a guide for a startup company for those with an entrepreneurial spirit.

    The "plays" in this book dictate corporate responsibility - which lends itself to sway human nature for corporatism. There are a ton a gems in this book, it's inspiring.

    In this stunning new book, Malcolm Gladwell takes us on an intellectual journey through the world of "outliers"--the best and the brightest, the most famous and the most successful. He asks the question: what makes high-achievers different? His answer is that we pay too much attention to what successful people are like, and too little attention to where they are from: that is, their culture, their family, their generation, and the idiosyncratic experiences of their upbringing.

    Story

    I enjoyed this book greatly, It answered the question - Is it just that people have all the money and then find a great idea? What's so much different than an "urban" kid vs a "privileged" kid. One part of the equation is exposure.
