THAT ENDING! THAT HEISENBERG! THAT JESSE! THAT BREAKING BAD! YO VINCE GILLIGAN THANKS YOU FOR GIVING THE WORLD THIS SHOW.

I just started considering opening my own firm and going solo after quite a few years of medium firm private practice. I never though of solo practice as something I would ever want to do-- thinking it very daunting and more stressful than straight employment in a larger firm. However, after speaking with other colleagues who had made the transition, I grew more comfortable with the idea. But where to start? How to keep from forgetting something? I do not want to start only to fold a few years later as my expenses get away from me (a real possibility in this new economy). I didn't want to start haphazardly or spend money on something I really didn't need and forget to invest in something I did need. I want to be organized and in control right from the start as much as one can be with a new business. The other books lawyers and friends of mine swore by as being the "must have book" for anyone who wants to fly solo seemed dated or out of print. I wanted a "first read" book that was as current as it gets, that considers today's current economic climate as well as considers the growth of the internet, technology, virtual spaces, and social media as options and factors to consider. I can say that as a up to date primer, as the initial book you buy when you have no idea how to begin, THIS IS THE "FIRST READ" BOOK FOR ME.

This is a great biz book: it is eminently practical, beautifully written, and in my own investigations I have seen exactly what the author is talking about. Stories are also interwoven in the book is a useful and interesting, indeed fascinating, way and greatly add to the text rather act as filler. Indeed, this is one of the few biz books I know that is worth reading all the way through, whereas most can be digested solely from reading the cover blurbs or at most the first chapter.
