The vast majority of “business” books can best be categorised as notes on winning a lottery. You’ll get a good deal more value from biographies, history books or a good novel.

@Daojoan judging by the post « 6 day workweek betta » on Microsoft’s « carreer network », these guys have too much business.

@Daojoan might be because the whole economic system is more of a rigged lottery rather than something that makes sense?

@Daojoan There is most likely a lot more value in academic research papers about business, than in the self-help type of business books. Sadly most of the research is behind expensive paywalls, so that even business book writers don't pay to get proper source materials.

Evan that may be too generous. Most business books are written by people who were given the winning lottery ticket by their parents.

Their advice could be resumed as: "be a squirt of Fred Trump's loins and act like a sociopath"
