What No One Ever Tells You About Starting Your Own Business, Second Edition: Real Life Startup Advice from 101 Successful Entrepreneurs by Jan Norman.
A fairly interesting, general advice book on starting your own business. The author interviewed a bunch of business owners and asked what they wish they’d known. There’s plenty of good little stories about that sort of thing.
But a lot of it I had been told or witnessed myself, coming from a family of entrepreneurs and marrying into another family of entrepreneurs.
Still, not a bad read and gives me things to think about.
Will you share with us one of the secrets, for those who don’t have entrepreneurial families?

Also, you always need more money than you think to get started.
