THE TAKEOVER ARTIST
I built a million-dollar company from a backpack and a Google search. Three people took it. This is the receipt.

Real People. Real Events.
WARNING: This book was not written for you.
It was written for a judge. A specific one. Local. Sitting on the bench with jurisdiction over what you're about to read.
You just picked it up first.
If you're an attorney or a psychologist, buckle up. When you're done, pass it up the chain to a judge. It was designed as a last-ditch effort to land hard in the right hands. When it does, it's gonna land hard.
That's what the truth does.
I didn't write this so you would like me.MIKE NELSON · THE TAKEOVER ARTIST
I wrote it because it happened.
