Como muchos empresarios, Ryan Blair no tenía educación formal de negocios, pero tenía un gran instinto de supervivencia, tenacidad, y, sobre todo, una mentalidad de "nada que perder". Su infancia de clase media llegó a un abrupto final cuando su abusivo padre sucumbió a la adicción de las drogas y abandonó la familia. Blair y su madre se mudaron a un barrio malo, y pronto ya estaba dentro y fuera del centro de detención juvenil, por unirse a una pandilla para sobrevivir. Luego su madre se enamora de un empresario exitoso que tomó a Ryan bajo su ala. Con la ayuda de su mentor, Blair se convierte en un empresario exitoso. Comenzó su primera empresa, 24/7 Tech, a la edad de veintiún años, y desde entonces ha creado y vendido varias empresas por cientos de millones de dólares.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Like many entrepreneurs, Ryan Blair had no formal business education. But he had great survival instincts, tenacity, and, above all, a "nothing to lose" mind-set. His middle-class childhood came to an abrupt end when his abusive father succumbed to drug addiction and abandoned the family. Blair and his mother moved to a bad neighborhood, and soon he was in and out of juvenile detention, joining a gang just to survive. Then his mother fell in love with a successful entrepreneur who took Ryan under his wing. With his mentor's help, Blair turned himself into a wildly successful businessman. He started his first company, 24/7 Tech, at the age of twenty-one, and since then has created and sold several companies for hundreds of millions of dollars. Now Blair shows readers how to start and grow their own profitable businesses. Sharing lessons from his mentors and advice from his own life-changing experiences, Blair provides an inspirational guide for people willing to put in the hard work, time, and dedication needed to achieve entrepreneurial success.
